Yes I've also noticed that the web ui has somewhat screwed up the two 
patches attached to my email.

This seems avoidable as one can see in 
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2011-07/msg00140.php but I 
don't know how.

I certainly could. But as those files are Andrew's work which isn't 
really related to VS2010 build and could as well be commited seperately 
I don't want to take credit for it.
I'll remove my versions from the patch (v9 probably) if those files get 
commited.

Thanks for the hints I'll consider then once I'll get started with the docs.

Actually I've also successfully tested an empty (no config.pl) 32-bit 
build using Visual Studio 2005 RTM.
