I ported the patch over to HEAD (took some work, but not too
difficult, the worst incompatibility was that the
$file_list_spec feature have been added for AIX which I hooked
into instead of hardcoding approximately the same thing for
MSVC)

Anyway, here's testsuite.log and I configured with:
../configure CC=cl CFLAGS=-MD CXX=cl CXXFLAGS=-MD STRIP=: RANLIB=:
F77=no FC=no NM="dumpbin -symbols" AR=lib LD=link

I also fixed the compile mode to add -TC or -TP for MSVC
instead of removing those flags in func_mode_link, which
was what you sufggested. But a couple of the tests (14
and 15, template.at) still trips on this issue as they
use $CXX directly instead of libtool's compile mode...

Also, test 11 (link-order.at) seems to need some -no-undefined
flags. I get:

<snip>

There are more similar warnings for other libs in that test.
