[mapserver-dev] building msplugin_mssql2008.dll

[Jeff McKenna]

You're totally right Steve: Howard told me in IRC to commit the changes 
so I did.  (however I didn't file a ticket so I guess I get a big wrist 
slap..ouch!)

sometimes I just lack confidence when i compare myself to all of u 
MapServer developers.  :)  you guys are all so good!  (if this is the 
NHL I'm still making $300 a week down in the minors ha)
