Hi Dima, welcome from me as well! We can always need some helping hands, and as you might have found out already especially windows build procedure needs help.

That would be great! Could you provide your modifications as a patch please? I read your description in text form, but having a patch ensures that there are no misunderstandings. If you did not yet use git to get the sources I suggest you do that now (you will need it anyway if you plan to contribute more), then it will be easy to produce a patch. You might have seen the thread "Compiling with Microsoft Visual C++", where racoon has trouble to build with MSVC 2015. Maybe you have an idea how for troubleshooting? Georg
