Compiling latest mapserver 4.8.4 (link errors)

[Howard Butler]

It appears that MING/MING_DIR and PDF/PDF_DIR 
were left uncommented in nmake.opt for the 4.8 
branch.  You need to comment these out (or obtain 
those libraries for PDF and Flash support).

The other errors are related to mixing debug and 
release versions of the runtimes.  Is one of your 
support libraries compiled with /MDd and you are 
compling MapServer with /MD?  All of the 
libraries need to be compiled against the same 
runtime to ensure perfect harmony in the MSVC universe.
