Lets look to supporting [name your favorite IDE] as a bigger picture
item not specific to windows, and to transition away from .dsp for
the build/ide view support.
Re: windows, aren't there one or more ports of gcc? Would something like
that be worth considering as a more stable build solution than MS's tools?
There is a runtime library issue. Most GCC ports do not generate object code
that can be linked with the necessary WinAPI runtime lib's. e.g, httpd needs
to link to lots of MS C startup libraris to use the file system, socket API,
IOCP, etc.
