There's probably an even better way to do this, but the attached "pseudo-patch" would seem to do the trick, although I 
haven't tested everything like creating an installer, etc.

I would not count the difference in behavior as a bug.  I'm sure it's just a difference in the Makefiles or natural 
differences in the behavior of the compilers, or whatever.

Wow. I really appreciate you taking time to experiment with this. Your
results are very enlightening. For now, I'm thinking I'll just copy
the support files to the necessary plugin directories manually before
compilation until I or someone else can figure out a fix for this
issue. It's interesting that it builds correctly in Linux and only
fails like this under Windows. You'd think they'd try to make the
compilation process as similar as possible between OS's. But of course
that's difficult since Windows makefiles are very different from Linux
ones. Do you think this should be counted as a bug?
