This patch does two things. First, it silences a number of compile-time warnings in the msvc tools files, mainly those due to the fact that in some cases we have more than one package per file. Second it supplies a dummy Perl library with just enough of the Windows API referred to in our code to let it run these checks cleanly, even on Unix machines where the code is never supposed to run. The dummy library should only be used for that purpose, as its README notes.
