I did see this note "Visual C++ 5.0 builds require an updated Microsoft
Windows Platform SDK to enable some Apache features." in win_compile.html,
but it lead me to believe that it was optional for some features.  apr is
hardly a feature :)

anyway, I'll try updating the SDK.  if that works, I'll suggest a doc change ;)

ok, I'll look for that.  free MS software, who would have thought...
