Running "cl" with no arguments will produce output like this:

I think that output could be parsed to determine the compiler version, but I don't know how to do that.  "16.xx.xxxxx.xx for 64" is the string we want to detect for VS 2010.

Interesting. I was actually thinking more along the lines of checking

for the presence of environment variables like %VS120COMNTOOLS% (for VS

12.0 = 2013) or %VS100COMNTOOLS% (for VS 10.0 = 2010).

Your idea would also get the architecture, but make should know that

already.

Is your fix necessary for SHARED_LIBRARIES=NO or STATIC_BUILD=YES? Or

both, or any?
