Ooh. Good one. I was thinking along the lines of how to automatically
process/munge the value from existing data. I like the build.conf idea much
better. I wonder if we'd be able to use that information in other areas.

Hmm. We shouldn't have to copy the stuff around. It would be much easier to
write a config file which is consumed by a single win-tests.py.
But even then, I'm not clear on why we'd need to copy it. I started looking
at win-tests.py, but was too tired to follow its logic with the TestHarness
and all.
So I got VC6 installed. Then the service pack. Then the SDK. Then I got
everything to build and link (without dup symbols(!)). When I tried to run
it, it looked for a .dll form of DB, but I only have .libs. This was after
about four hours, it was late, and I stopped there.
Dale noted the svn_config.dsp thing (which I also saw), which can probably
be added to the template, or maybe via code. I forgot to look at what
changed in the .dsw from what was generated, to determine what the needed
change was.
Cheers,
