Yes, the environment needs to be set up for the compiler. Typically,
there is a script called "setenv.cmd" or "vcvars32.bat" that can be
called from a batch based build, and a start menu entry "Visual Studio
Command Shell" or similar.

has some documentation.

Our build log lives at


http://ci.kicad-pcb.org/job/windows-pixman-msvc/cpu=x86,label=windows/lastSuccessfulBuild/console

The patch being applied in the log is the one I submitted.

Yes, but nmake is rather limited, and GNU make has a bootstrap script
and works from a standalone executable, so I'm not sure that is worthwhile.
