32 + On Windows, Radiance gets built with MS Visual Studio if present, the
33 + community editions are sufficient.
34 + VS 2013 is currently the most recent version that does it correctly.
35 + VS 2015 also performs the build, but it uses the new "universal CRT"

37 + A fix is apparently ready and should be released via autoupdate,
38 + probably around the time of the "anniversary update" in summer 2016.
39 + Older versions of VS may work as well, but haven't been tested with
40 + the current sources.
