Run Configure.pl with the flags "--jitcapable=0 --execcapable=0", e.g.
perl Configure.pl --jitcapable=0 --execcapable=0
It seems to work that way.

If you look up a little from what you pasted in, there is normally something
a little more descriptive. In this case it appears to be:-
./include\parrot/jit_emit.h(2504) : error C2065: 'RTYPE_COM' : undeclared
identifier

For anyone interested, here is the latest test info on Win32:-
