Ben, your patch works fine on my system; no problems to report.

The operation of VC++ export makefile is, ummm,  nonintuitive.... I deleted
ap_strings.c from ap.dsp, exported the makefile and discovered the makefile had a new
dependency, on $(INCLUDE)\dirent.h -in my cygwin32 libraries-! Had I created a patch
based on this makefile, it would have failed on everyones system but mine.  I deleted
the cygwin32 include path from DevStudio and the 'dependency' went away! And I've no
idea where the dependency on stat.h and types.h comes from...
