Actually, the SDK upgrade was done because I was seeing some other mt.exe errors I hadn’t seen before such as “–n” option not supported when parsing the –nologo argument.  Obviously the problem below is due to the missing zlib1.dll.manifest file.  I am current as far as “nmake –f Makefile.nmake setup” is concerned.

Currently I am unable to even get that far.  I’m at SVN32735 on Windows XP SP3 (32-bit) with cygwin 1.7.5(0.225/5/3), and after a “distclean”, compiling with VS2008EE fails due to a zlib-related manifest error.  Here’s the relevant output:

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin\mt.exe"' : return code '0x1f'
Stop.

In case it was due to the SDK, I tried to update it to the latest from here:

… but no luck:

Anyone else seeing this?

Note: A while back I found that VS2010 (VC10) no longer generates manifest files as a default. (search for previous -dev EMails on using VC10). 

Did updating the SDK update the compilier ??

From your link above ...
The Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 provides the documentation, samples, header files, libraries, and tools (including C++ compilers) ....
