Like Mark, I have noticed that there are enough ignored VS warnings now to not 
think we need more.

Every time socketmodule is recompiled, for instance, I see all the scary 
deprecation warnings.  These are Windows-specific.  Should the code be changed 
or should the warnings be silenced with  _WINSOCK_DEPRECATED_NO_WARNINGS, as 
suggested?

Other warnings appear to come from code compiled on all systems.  I presume 
such code is usually developed on Linux.  Is such code compiling warning free 
on gcc?  Are there conflicting demands and opinions from gcc and vs?

I am a little confused on the actual policy for compiling on Windows.  I 
believe Victor Stinner has done some patches to stop them, but...
(Steve)> Doing the work to clean up the warnings really has to come second, 
ultimately.
Second to what?

Should I just close my eyes when running build.bat?
