Thank you *very* much.
It seems as if I have been trying to get rid of this 'irritant' for ever,
but somehow it seems to keep sneaking back in :-)

Note Simgear has not had a <winbase.h> check for a while now
and it has not caused any complaints.

FYI
Checking for <windbase.h>  goes against MicroSoft practice which
*explicitly* reccomends *only* including <windows.h> as it will bring
in the other necessary Windows headers which 'might' change depending
on the version of Windows being compiled for !!

For the curious including a check for <winbase.h> has created lot's
of 'traffic' on the list in the past.

Let's hope this fixes it for ever !

Thanks
