Stop.
This is because HAVE_CONFIG_H is not #defined, which is odd, because
configure.js goes to the trouble of creating a config.h file.
An MSVC6 build fails with the following additional error: timsort.h(75) : error C2059: syntax error : 'bad suffix on number' timsort.h(75) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ')' before identifier 'L' timsort.h(75) : error C2059: syntax error : ')' (I.e. the compiler doesn't recognize the "ULL" integer-type suffix.)The attached patch addresses the above, adds testrecurse.exe and the standard "make check" suite of tests to the MSVC makefile, and also fixes the following (MSVC7.1) warnings:
buf.c(674) : warning C4028: formal parameter 1 different from declaration libxml2\timsort.h(71) : warning C4028: formal parameter 1 different from declaration --Daniel -- Daniel Richard G. || danielg teragram com || Software Developer Teragram Linguistic Technologies (a division of SAS) http://www.teragram.com/
