You can now build with either VC6 or VS.Net; you only have to generate
the right kind of project files. Try running "python gen-make.py -?"
from the root of the sources, and read Instructions with an example are
in the INSTALL file.

You'll probably have to check out the current HEAD of the repository,
though -- I don't think the last release tarball has all the required
changes to the generator.
