Hello,

I did think about that actually. It might well be worth looking into
zipping those up too.

For the project I've got, we're happy using MS headers. However the
problem I'm currently having is that neither -fms-extensions or
-ms-extensions are changing the fact that _WIN32 remains undefined.
