Just Visual Studio 2005, but I guess the exact version does not matter much.

As I said, the makefile generation mostly works "out of box" (I only
had to specifty location of libftd2xx manually). Right now I'm trying
nmake makefiles, not VS projects.

I know that it can be compiled with mingw and have done it myself.
What I'm interested in now is making a pure msvc build, with no
Unix-specific headers and libraries. But this means getting rid of all
C99 and GNU stuff (besides what can be fixes with #defines, like
__attribute__). Is that something that can be considered for OpenOCD
at all, or completely out of question? The changes required so far are
not really substantial, if a bit tedious to do.
