[impdev] Windows build issues

[Nicky Perian]

which version of vs20xx are you using? with express versions you have to copy 
the msvc???.dll and the CRT file that matched to the build-vcxx/newview/Release 
or RelWithDebInfo directory. Also. if you cloned several times double check 
viewer_manifest.py for 4053. Lastly, make sure the msvcr80.dll and msvcp80.dll 
are the correct versions. right-click properties next to last tab on the right.

If this is a rehash sorry, not meaning to offend.
Nicky

Good-news bad-news.

Good:  I was able to make a "zip" of a directory that runs.

Bad:  The .exe still claims to need both ...762 and ...4053 
versions of MSVC.  Haven't tried setting up to "package" yet.

I tried changing crtassem.h, was obvious which line to change.  
Didn't make a difference.  Got a fresh copy from the git repo.  
Will try again later with a fork/clone from the official 1.4 exp 
branch.  See if there's some breakage on Onefangs fork, or if it's 
the real state of things in impy-land.

Thanks again for all your help.  Any ideas on why two different 
version of MSVC are described in the .exe, or how to make it pick 
one, I'd love to hear it!
