I just responded to someone else about the same subject. Here is my
response to that note:

Yes the build environment for KfW is pretty badly broken at least the
3.0 environment which is what I ended up building (using VS 2005). Many
of the build files needed fixing, files were missing from the lists and
I needed to pull the krb-1.x code into a Unix environment, fix the
errors, create the zip file, move to windows, try and build, fix some
more, etc.. It was painful but I needed the source code in debug in
order to do what I needed. I'll probably need to do it again for KfW
3.1. There were also some obvious errors in the code as well that I
needed to fix.

I'd put in the fixes into the code base but I'd need to set up
subversion first and with all the different code management systems I
don't want to spend the time right now.

I wrote extensive notes on this just to get things to build.

This is nonsense. This is a public mailing list and all your emails are
