I have now duped all of the linux files and created nsx variants, I've also set the environment variables GOOS to nsx and GOARCH to amd64. When I tried to run make.bat (If you try to port and run bootstrap.sh on windows, you get an error message directing you to run make.bat instead on windows), it complained that I should not uncomment "+build" or "+go:build" statements, so I commented them again on the nsx files that it complained about. Now I get the below error which makes sense as it sees multiple delcarations - but I'm unsure how to go about fixing it. Can you please advice?
