I'll have a look.

Most people build Emacs using MinGW, where editbin is not available.
But we could tweak gmake.defs and nmake.defs such that MSVC builds do
use editbin.

Sorry, I don't know enough about the various libraries provided by MS
to answer that. In general, we must support a build against libraries
that are part of the OS, we cannot rely on users having the SDK or the
Studio installation. So linking against libraries that are only
distributed with VS must be an option. Even using vcredist packages
as a prerequisite would be a nuisance.
