For the notes, the maintainer of the buildbot @ http://x265.cc/ said the commit 4066e6e could be compiled successfully only through vc11 x86-64.

Which makes me ask: GCC can be used on various operating systems, including Windows,
whereas MSVC works under Windows only,
so what is the point of using it in the X265 Project?????
