Who's using the MS compilers? We would save ourselves a lot of effort and make the code cleaner if we used gcc/autoconf on all platforms. According to Thomas Grill, gcc's code is comparable in terms of optimization to MSVC.
To be fair that was an old version of MSVC compared to the latest version of gcc. To my experience it's much easier to set up and debug a project using MSVC than with gcc on Windows, so i personally would not want to do without MSVC. It's not that hard to write code in a way that it works with all current and common compilers.
