hi all.  a few win32 things :)

I'm trying to get 2.0.48 to compile using VC++ 5.0 (sp1) on win2k (sp4) and
am having a few issues.  yeah, I know it's old, but I happen to have it
around and it's all I have :)  anyway, since I'm not a windows guy, some of
this might be common knowledge, but I couldn't find anything on google.

 - http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/platform/win_compiling.html suggests I
need the Platform SDK, but the link is stale.  in fact, I can't find it
anywhere on the MS site - MS has a download page for it, but it's borked.
so, is there more recent information such that the docs ought to be updated?

 - since the SDK is only suggested, I tried compiling anyway.  I get to
apr-util/rand.c and it throws this:

rand.c
C:\httpd-2.0.48\srclib\apr\misc\win32\rand.c(102) : error C2065: 'HRESULT' :
undeclared identifier
C:\httpd-2.0.48\srclib\apr\misc\win32\rand.c(102) : error C2064: term does
not evaluate to a function
C:\httpd-2.0.48\srclib\apr\misc\win32\rand.c(102) : warning C4013:
'UuidCreate' undefined; assuming extern returning int
C:\httpd-2.0.48\srclib\apr\misc\win32\rand.c(102) : error C2065: 'UUID' :
undeclared identifier

is this a known issue?  should I report it to apr?  or maybe 5.0 just isn't
supported anymore?  I'll accept that it's because I have no idea what I'm
doing on this platform :)

 - lastly, is it possible/practical to have httpd 2.0 and 2.1 CVS snapshots
include the win foo so I can attempt a fairly recent version of everything?

anyway, thanks for any feedback.
