[AD] Makefile.vc borked

["Karthik Kumar" <karthikkumar@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I can confirm that the makefile.vc doesn't work. 

1.
Error log:
makefile.vc:355: *** extraneous `endef'.  Stop.

it's fixed as here:

define MAKE_LIB
   $(RUNNER) $(MSVC_LINK) @ -nologo $(LFLAGS) -dll -def:lib/msvc/allegro.def -out:$(DLL_NAME) -implib:$(IMPLIB_NAME) $(OBJECTS) $(LIBRARIES)
endef
endif
#endef

2. After that,

obj/msvc/runner.exe E:/MSVS8/VC/bin/cl @ -nologo -DALLEGRO_SRC -W1 -Gd -MD -O2
-GL -D_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE -D_CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE -I. -I./include -Foob
j/msvc/alleg/config.obj -c src/config.c
config.c
src/config.c(1444) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before 'type'
src/config.c(1451) : error C2065: 'in_section' : undeclared identifier
src/config.c(1513) : warning C4090: 'function' : different 'const' qualifiers
make: *** [obj/msvc/alleg/config.obj] Error 2

fixed by flipping the order:

   int in_section;
   prettify_section_name(section, section_name, sizeof(section_name));

(C99 syntax)

3. Next:

obj/msvc/runner.exe E:/MSVS8/VC/bin/cl @ -nologo -W1 -W1 -Gd -MD -O2  -GL -D_CRT

Apparently -MD doesn't work here... -MT works fine. :) Please confirm this.

4. misc\fixdll.bat won't work coz WinXP has a sort command in cmd.exe :( I had to change the sort.exe to gnusort.exe to make it work. Check the attached bat file

5. The grand finale:

It's borked. Apparently some linking library problem? :) Verify you arrive here.
