You're missing a couple of points here. First, the MS Visual whatever
compiler can also be used with a makefile-driven build system. Second,
the port as it stands isn't really compatible with anything except Jan's
build instructions. There's a lot of work to be done before we get
anything that builds out of the box in the 7.4 branch, and it's going to
be a lot easier if we do it using the build system we already have and
know.
