The main benefit is that if you make "blind" edits in the Perl files,
you can verify them easily, first by seeing that the Perl code runs,
second, depending on the circumstances, by diffing the created project
files. Another is that if you do some nontrivial surgery in makefiles,
you can check whether the Perl code can still process them. So the
benefit is mainly that you can iterate faster when working on build
system related things. You still need to do a full test on Windows at
the conclusion, but then hopefully with a better chance of success.
I see. No objection then.
None from here either, and the patch is working correctly.
