Yes. There is a patch pending on -patches which fix almost all of these
in HEAD. (There are a few tiny things related to perl and NLS that
aren't included in it ATM. And I'm just assuming you're seeing the same
problems as I was but I didn't base my work off vcproject). I'm also
working on a buildscript to convert the Makefiles to visual c++ project
files, but that's not quite done yet. The idea with this work is to have
the stuff as integrated as possible with main CVS, so the maintenance
will be as low as possible - unlike the vcproject project which has been
focusing on keeping a separate build environment maintained.
The target is VC++ 2003 and 2005 ATM, but it should just be a matter of
a different output format for VC 6.0 I guess.
You will still need things like bison and flex if you want to build off
cvs, of course - there is no builtin support for that in VC++.

The CrystalSpace and PlaneShift projects I'm associated with have
automated MSVC generators. Want me to try to grab them for you? They'd
be GPL though.

Ahh, Your right... However, I wish to offer construction of the DSP project of VC6.
I continues after you. But, This is not fully considered carefully yet.

Probably , Flex and bison do not need for the formal release souce of PostgreSQL.
It will already be generated.
