Yes, but what I want to do is merge the patches from mainline for MSVC 
2005 to the release branch. The goal is that I want you to be able to 
build using 2008 and for everyone using 2005 to be able to build as well.

I am sorry if I gave the impression that I did not care about building 
LLVM with MSVC for 2.3. That is not the case at all. I should have worded 
my reply differently. What I was hoping for was that someone could go 
through the patches and verify that if applied to the release23 branch 
that it would build for 2005 and 2008. I do not have MSVC to be able to 
test it myself.

These are the patches that I think we need:

http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20080519/062673.html

Can someone on MSVC 2005 and someone on 2008 please checkout the 
release_23 branch and apply these ptaches? Let me know if thats enough to 
get things building for MSVC 2005 and 2008.

Thanks,
-Tanya
