[Vm-dev] Windos UNICODE (?!?!?)

[Eliot Miranda]

Hi All, especially Windows persons,

   I'm debugging the 64-bit VM in the context of Perf on win64.  I've
just noticed that we don't appear to be building a UNICODE VM?!?!  I rind
no define of UNICODE in the win32 platform files and no define of UNICODE
on the compiler command line in the build.winXXxYY/common makefiles.  This
is surely a mistake, isn't it?  If this is a regression, when and why did
this occur?  I'm going to add -DUNICODE=1 to the Makefile.msvc makefiles.
AFAICT this should also happen with the Cygwin Makefiles.  But before I
make changes that could affect lots of people I thought I should ask here.
Anyone know when and why we dropped -DUNICODE from the Cygwin build command
line?

_,,,^..^,,,_
best, Eliot
