Err, I missed this earlier - we had discussed getting rid of all the
VC++ & Borland makefiles for 8.1. With Mingw now working they are a
little redundant now, and Bruce & I (and probably others) had to jump
through hoops to keep them working this release. Admittedley that pain
will probably be less in the future, but still, they are a pita to
maintain (especially Borland as no-one seems to have the compiler
anyway!)
