C99 vs msvc issues aside, what about the following:

It seems to me that either Loreen or Jason don't see any value in having 
up to date msvc project files (please correct me if I'm wrong), which is 
fair as you're not using them.
So I'm offering to support the msvc/icl project files myself, so all 
you'd have to do would be to commit the patches.
For the C99ism which is not understood by MSVC (which is indeed 
annoying), I'd eventually send patches, but separated from the project 
ones. This way you'd choose to commit them or not.

This way we'd have:
*up to date project files
*icl would be able to directly use the project files (reminder: on 
windows, icl is available as a "plug in" for msvc)

Sounds reasonable, doesn't it?
