[M3devel] Windows with MS BuildTool

The problem is:
Since I never use Visual Studio per se, I unistalled the whole thing and
replaced it with the Visual Studio 2019 BuildTool, modifying "NT.common" as
follows:
--------------
%      Msdev = SystemDrive & "\\msdev\\80"
   Msdev = SystemDrive & "\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\2019\\BuildTools"
         VCInstallDir = Msdev & "\\VC\\Tools\\MSVC\\14.21.27702"
         DevEnvDir = Msdev & "\\Common7\\\IDE"
         end end end end

        if VCInstallDir
            VCBin = VCInstallDir & "\\bin\\Hostx64\\x86"
            VCLib = VCInstallDir & "\\lib"
            VCInc = VCInstallDir & "\\include"
        end
---------------------

The MS 2019 build tool, has four sets of executables. Under "bin" two directories Host64 and Host32,
and, for both of them, targets x64 and x86.
I thus compiled using Host64, target x86 and still get the bloody LNK1112 error!

And trying to follow what happens through the umpteen Russian Doll config files is near impossible for someone who did not participate in the setting-up of the whole thing.
