Bruce,

I don't have time to look into your specific error, however I can say that
late wget till at least 1.10.2 at least with VC6 on Windows NT 4 exposed a
compiler error in httpc. and retr.c.

A workaround is turning off optimization either completely (remove the /O2
from Makefile.src before running configure.bat, not the best thing) or
selectively with the attached patch.
That patch applies cleanly to 1.10, to 1.10.2 and later possibly you need to
apply manually, basically insert the pragma lines around post_file() in
http.c, around fd_read_body in retr.c.

Then try the configure --msvc/nmake.
