many different places it is quite difficult to make sure the right
things are linking the right things.
I added the two files msvc/winConfigDebug.bat msvc/winConfigRelease.bat
To build only the libaries that should be linked, so we will get an
error message if a release build links to a debug build.
I have been using their unreleased versions for a very
