[OpenAFS-devel] MSVC++ 5 problems with current CVS

[Joe Buehler]

There are a few problems I ran into when building the latest CVS
with Visual C++ 5:

1. The /no_robust midl option is invalid, and /WX then forces a fatal
error instead of a warning.

2. The shobjidl.h file does not exist.  Taking it out doesn't cause any compile
problems.

3. afs_shl_ext.dll fails to link with massive (200) undefined symbol errors.  I
looked at it a little, and there are apparently missing libraries,
and a conflict between MFC and msvcrt that needs to be resolved by someone
in the know.
