I'm using it to make the new python pymssql driver, dropping the
Microsoft db-lib and using FreeTDS for both Unix and Windows which
makes life easier only supporting one API. Unfortunately my previous
(and current) development is primarily Linux based so my experience of
compiling C projects on Windows is extremely minimal and have no idea
why the static libs are so big!

If there's anything I can do to help improve the Windows build then
I'm more than happy to offer my help!
