Did you comment out your _USE_32BIT_TIME_T there?
What does "/D _WIN32" do?
What C run-time library are you using?

I've been able to find Microsoft docs on the various compiler and
linker flags, but NOT anything clear on what all the magic /D
preprocessor definitions actually do.

The nmake files I got from Ibrahim (at Archiware) use the "/MTd"
compiler flag, which should give me the debug version of the
"libcmtd.lib" CRT, as explained here:

  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2kzt1wy3%28v=vs.100%29.aspx

The other main option is /MDd for "msvcrtd.lib", but I don't know
which is the default when you pass no flags at all.

Most of our other build options are the same.  However, besides the
ones I mentioned above, I am also using these extra flags that you do
not have:

In COPTS:  /Zi /RTC1 
In  DEFS:  /D _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS /D _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE /D _CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE /D "_DEBUG" 
In LOPTS:  /DEBUG

AFAICT those all just enable additional debugging and/or run-time
checks, and so should be pretty safe.
