Hi Philip,

Yes.

A couple of general comments:

- please do not comment out code. Just remove it.

- the first three commit messages look funny, being indented by 4
  spaces... unintentional?

Yes, but instead of adding dead code, it would be better to use the
comment "# ignore". I would also strongly suggest to hard-code the
complete file name instead of just the extension. We know exactly which
file name we want to ignore, and if there should be another .obj file
eventually, it would be wrong to ignore it, too.

Technically, you need to use a group \($\|[ \t]\), but I think that that
would be overkill.

Frankly, neither do I ;-) But since you touched only engine.pl, I would
expect Qmake not to be affected at all, right?

IANAPME (I am not a Perl Monk either), but it looks good to me.

The path you used is /msysgit/bin/msvc-build, but the real path would be
/bin/msvc-build.

To the contrary, I like the current separation of concerns.
