Comment (by robe):

 We don't support MSVC compile.  All windows compiles are done using
 Mingw64 GCC+ compilers.


 I think we had the cmake thing going on that supports MSVC, but that's at
 this point a forked project, see #2362 and I'm not interested in
 supporting CMake unless someone steps up to the plate to take ownership of
 it.  At this point I don't think active PostGIS dev team members are
 interested in taking ownership of CMake support.

 That may change in future, but at this point any talk of MSVC support in
 my mind is moot.  By that time Microsoft will probably be pushing linux
 tools anyway since that is their future and windows is their past.
