I forgot to finish what I was saying, which was that while I don't think
the .msc makefiles are a full solution, I think it makes sense to get
them into the tree ... might as well have *something* there.

Perhaps we should include the relevant parts of build\..\make.msc in the
cairo tree to avoid having GLib be a build dependency of cairo? 

A short document describing how to set up a build using this stuff would
be quite useful.
