Ping! Bruno, could you please suggest a solution for the above? OTOH, if you think this is something for us to solve (since we caused it by omitting the stdio module), I'm okay with solving it by placing the necessary glue on nt/inc/ms-w32.h, which is an Emacs specific header file used in the Windows builds. TIA
