yes, I took a look at that URI and realized that the MSVC port has 
already been done!

The GCC assembly file win32.s, was translated for the MSVC assembler, in 
2002 by John Beniton and Ranjit Mathew.

Tomorrow I'll download the ffi port and try to run ALL the tests. If all 
tests succeed, I'll start to tackle the task of porting SableVM to MSVC.
