Right, this way the normal configure script is run in cygwin. That's 
certainly a valid solution.

But let me restate my question. Has anybody managed to build GNU Go 
3.7.11 on Windows using MSVC? Are the gnugo.dsw and */*.dsp files of any 
use in their present condition?

I have also posted an updated cmake configuration patch at 
http://trac.gnugo.org/gnugo/attachment/ticket/191/cmake_7_12.1b.diff
which fixes some problems but also replaces the HAVE_VISUAL_C symbol 
with actual configure tests to check existence of specific header files.
