To set up a proper MSVC environment in MSYS, you simply need to run
@code{msys.bat} from the Visual Studio command prompt.

-Either move/remove that copy, or make sure MSVC's link.exe is higher up in your
-@code{PATH} than coreutils'.

Place @code{c99wrap.exe}, @code{c99conv.exe}, and @code{yasm.exe} somewhere

zlib binary from somewhere, with an MSVC import lib, or if you wish to link
statically, you can follow the instructions below to build a compatible
