Re: Building on Win32 with VS2005

I fixed the VS2005 build issues I could in r17306, but there are a
couple left...

These were due to assumed operand sizes which the new assembler won't
assume anymore -- hopefully the next release of zlib will be fixed
(they are aware of the issue). Some info is available at:

This issue, IMO, is a total bug in VS2005 but MS is saying it is 'by
design'. They have broken wildcard quoting in setargv.obj:

If they refuse to fix it, I guess we'll have to expand wildcards
ourselves on Windows? Any better ideas?
