RE: Final(?) problems building on Win32

As it is, I had the latest Platform SDK, but had one or more of the
following problems:

1) Didn't have environment variables defined properly in my command-line
windows

2) Didn't have paths defined properly in Visual C++

3) Might not have had *enough* of the Platform SDK installed. I only have
the "Core SDK" installed, but then installed the "Internet Development SDK"
(and a bunch of others that almost certainly weren't relevant). However, I
fixed my environment variables at the same time, so I never found out if
anything beyond the Core SDK was actually needed. Anyone know if
"shfolder.lib" is installed with "Core" or with "Internet Development"?

I also had problems because the Python I was using was from my Cygwin
toolset. It managed to create "dsp" files with paths like
"\cygwin\D\Work\...", which were completely wrong. Removing Cygwin
completely from the build and instead using the Python from www.python.org
helped there.

In the end, a number of my problems derived from unfamiliarity with Visual
C++ and the Platform SDK, which I had never used in earnest before. Though
I'm no novice programmer, I am a total newbie to Visual C++, so there were
some things to learn.

I also had major problems with the preprocessor directive APU_HAVE_DB being
re-defined in apu.h, so I ended up removing it from the apu.hw used in the
Subversion build.

Thanks, everyone, for your help.
