Hmm, OK. So we need an updated developer's guide setup section. I will try
to update my Windows vom 2010 to 2013 and see how it goes - just have to
find out how to snapshot the VM first ;->
Could you update Makefile.nmake and config.nmake to rip out all the
stuff that deals with older versions? That would make my life with the
CMake work on Windows somewhat easier ;-)
Thanks

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
