Yea, that should do the trick, as long as one doesn't rely on indirect
stubs, which we don't.  Kinda wonder if we could hackfix this by putting
your definition of createLocalIndirectStubsManagerBuilder() into
something earlier on the search path...

Many thanks again.

Hah.  I'm not 100% sure I can MSVC project stuff done for this release,
TBH. Doing it via mingw shouldn't be much trouble. But I'm aiming for
fixing the project generation support too.

Yea, I guess we could add branches for that, but 7 just branched and is
a moving target, so I'm inclined to wait a bit.
