Many vc2008 compiled libraries works on mingw and vc2010 without a problem. If we have complete separate directories for each folder, it will take more space on server and we would have to update lib for each compiler. On the other hand, I think we can make pointers from lib/MSVC2010 to lib/Windows as we have setup with Python Scripts.
