Has anyone successfully built httpd on Vista with the SDK and bundled
compiler?

I have a feeling that it's not the compilers, but the SDK.

In any case, APR is bailing out on me pretty quickly:

Then the answer I suppose is ... yes.  2005 compiles are working fine.

FWIW, if you are trying to build from the GUI - that's it's own can
of worms, it mis-parses the RC flags from the .dsp upon conversion.
You can preparse these into a nonsensical flavor using apr/build/cvtdsp.pl.

Building 2.2.4 from the -win32-src.zip's command line makefiles (or just
Makefile.win) should work just fine if you've set up the compiler tool
paths correctly.

You read correctly.  'tis sweet indeed.  I think it's the compilers that
come with vs 2005 express editions.  It includes compilers for x86, x64
and IA64 (all are x86 binaries and cross-compile for the target
platform, if I understood correctly - as I don't have any x64 OS
installed, I haven't played with it yet)

more. "

"Bundled" compiler?  If Vista or the most recent SDK includes a C compiler,
it would be news to me.  Pointers?
