While I understand your annoyance with MSVC, it's nevertheless an 
important environment, and I maintain that supporting it lends more 
credence to Chicken in the industry. I understand that you do not wish 
to spend time on it. I still hope "we" (the community) will be able to 
restore this feature at some point.

If it's just the build tools that create problems, that may not be such 
a big impediment. There are command line tools for the MSVC compiler, 
and requiring GNU make for Windows to be installed would not be too onerous.


Best,
