Any ideas how I generate a patch using Windows?
I have another. the definition of tbuf at line 1732 in csv_util.c

        case XT_UTM_ZONEF: {
                GPS_Math_WGS84_To_UTM_EN(wpt->latitude, wpt->longitude,
                                         &utme, &utmn, &utmz, &utmzc);
                char tbuf[10];

has to be before the GPS_Math... call in MSVC
