It seems that you might be the first soul to attempt this ;-)

Provide here the list of macros that get redefined, and we'll try to
fix this. Depending on how MS has broken their compiler headers this
time, and depending on each macro that gets redefined the fix will be
different.

The fix for this one will be to add a line in setup_once.h inmediately
before the one you mention undefining the errno.h defined EWOULDBLOCK.

Don't take for granted that setup_once.h is the naive one here.

Provide the list of redefined macros, which header defines them in
first place and with which value and we'll adjust our headers to fix
VS2010 brokenness.

Others have similar problems with this issue. But MS seems
sloooooooooooower fixing issues.

Even when it isn't actually a libcurl problem, we try to do our best
in providing a library and tool that can be compiled with nearly any
f*****g compiler version. So tell us the info i've requested above in
order to make libcurl compilable out of the box even with VS2010.
