A tiny fraction of Windows users are going to have Visual Studio already 
available and properly configured. You're much better off distributing 
binaries, and for binary compatibility with the way Julia is built you're 
likely to have better success using MinGW-w64 GCC, rather than MSVC. Note 
that the WinRPM package provides easy access to a large collection of 
pre-compiled binaries, see https://github.com/JuliaLang/WinRPM.jl and 
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/windows%3Amingw%3Awin64, there are 
quite a few qt libraries available there along with boost and others.
