Has someone managed to compile XEmacs with (0$) Microsoft Visual C++
Toolkit 2003? I'd rather use more recent beta in Windows, but compiling
XEmacs is rather complicated.

this is the version i use regularly. compilation should not be too
hard; copy nt/config.inc.samp to config.inc, make any changes, run
`nmake -f xemacs.mak'. see the README. there are precompiled optional
libraries on the www.xemacs.org web site.

Well, it's not that easy:
- Get VC++ Toolkit
- First I installed Platform SDK
- Set up LIB & INCLUDE env variables
- Downloaded XEmacs external libs
- Set up config.inc
- Try to compile
- Notice that setargv,obj is missing - perlwin32 man page had
instruction how to make it (cl.exe /c /I. /D_CRTBLD setargv.c)
- Then compilation stops with missing MSVCRTD.lib, which I could not
find instructions to download
I'll dig around, but shortcuts appreciated.

Try compiling with
DEBUG_XEMACS=0
in config.inc
I don't generally recommend this, since it will render your backtraces
fairly useless, but it will confirm that MSVCRT.lib is availiable in
your installation, while MSVCRTD.lib is not.
(See nt\xemacs.mak)

this ought to come with VC++.

Neither is available. I have only VC++ Toolkit, that is the free command
line version. Of the related files, there is only MSVCR71.dll.
There seems to be one in .NET Framework SDK 1.1, but using that gives me
following error:
MSVCRTD.lib(MSVCR71D.dll): error LNK2005: _exit already defined in
LIBC.lib(crt0dat.obj)
etc...

Seems like Microsoft is distribution Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition
free for any use, so I tried to use that. Note that nmake from Platform
SDK needs to be used, otherwise the compilation fails for too long
command line. With debug, it fails to find MSVCR71D.DLL, and without
debug it fails at:
libjpeg.lib(jerror.obj): error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __iob
After commenting out jpeg, it compiles... But dumping crashes:
NMAKE: fatal error U1077: '"[...]lib-src\i"' : return code
'0xc000000d'
