Windows build assistance requested for new date parser

[Greg Hudson <gh...@MIT.EDU>]

As gstein recently pointed out, mbk's new date parser requires some
changes to the Windows build to remove the special handling of
getdate.c.  The changes look easy enough, but since I don't think any
of the new date parser's major champions have access to a Windows
build environment, we will need help testing them.

I have placed an updated version of mbk's patch in issue #408, at:

  http://subversion.tigris.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/264/diff

which includes mbk's patch and, in addition, removes the special
handling of getdate.c in svn_config.dsp, svn_config.vcproj, and
build/generator/gen_win.py.  (It also removes some special handling of
struct getdate_time in the SWIG bindings core, and removes the bison
and flex dependencies in the Mandrake RPM spec files, but those things
aren't relevant to this message.)

I need someone to apply this patch to the trunk or the 1.0
branch--doesn't really matter which--and test one or both of the
Windows builds.  (At least, I assume the .dsp and .vcproj files are
for different Microsoft development environments, implying that there
are two separate builds.)

Thanks.

I can confirm that this works great for the vcproj generator (against 
trunk).  Some cursory date testing went fine and all ra_local tests 
passed.  I also generated the dsp projects and converted/used them in 
VSNet which went as well as it ever has...but I cannot actually test 
those since I don't have access to VC6.
