#172 patch for building under Visual C++
Based loosely on the the previous patch attempts.
Patch alters many files to insert export definitions that VC++ can use during library generation.
Added a dirent.h (originally from http://www.softagalleria.net/dirent.php\) to the Win32 directory. This file is under the GPL-compatable MIT License.
Added Makefile.vc to the Win32 directory. This file is an NMake makefile, and should operate correctly under x86 and x64, for any version of VC 6 - 10.
Use from a VC command prompt: nmake -f win32\Makefile.vc
The only caveat is that a define will need to be added to the non-windows build files to define CPP_EXPORT=[blank]. I wasn't sure the proper location in the existing setup to inject that, so I'm leaving it to someone more experienced with aspell dev than myself.
Corrected diff
