2c.

One of good things switching to MSVC is debugging.
The gdb is cool, when today is 70's. i found debugging VM built by GNU
tools under windows is real pain.

But the downside of it, i think will be loss of performance - AFAIK
MSVC does not supports jump tables (which is used by
gnuification step), which gives roughly 30% increase in interpreter performance.
