Patch 7.0.Make_GvimExt
Problem:    On Windows, when GvimExt is built with Microsoft Visual
            Studio 2005, the context menu item "Edit with vim" doesn't
            appear in Explorer. Reason: GvimExt.dll cannot be loaded,
            because it is not prepared to the Windows Side by Side
            Components subsystem and so cannot find the C Runtime
            library in MSVCR80.dll.
Solution:   A manifest file is created by the linker. Embed it into
            the resources of GvimExt.dll.
Files:      src/GvimExt/Makefile

I'm glad you managed to find a fix for this.

I don't have this compiler.  Can someone with MSVC 2005 verify this
works properly?  Is this the whole solution or does something else need
to be changed?

Send me the patch and I'll try it out.
