Can you help, this is, provide a patch or a zip file with the
necessary data?  No FreeType core developer is a Windows user.
Ideally, I would like to have a directory `builds/win64' which
contains a ready-to-run project file for a fitting compilation
environment so that your described actions are reduced to an absolute
minimum (additional steps should be mentioned in the corresponding
`index.html' file).
