Added support for compiling on win32 with Visual C and 'nmake'. It compiles,
but does not link. Perhaps someone who understands the MS tools can help
out. I made it link a few months ago, but with different version of glib/gtk+.
I can't remember how I made it link.
Most of the compatibility issues were resolved with adding
#ifdef HAVE_UNISTD_H the the source code. Please be sure to add this to all
future code.
