If you're asking that question, it might be best if you just compile
with Visual Studio 2008 and wait for VS 2010 support to come out in
(hopefully) the next release. Especially since Brian says the patch no
longer corresponds with git master, so you'd need to make code changes
to get it to apply correctly.

I strongly recommend that you use Visual Studio 2008 (the free Express
Edition works and is still available for download) or use the free
Windows SDK for Vista and .NET 3.5.

You can get the SDK from here:
