I think what you are referring to was retired in favor of the vc
makefiles in the winbuild folder. Check the README, from the VS command
prompt it will be something like nmake /f Makefile.vc mode=dll VC=10

Alternatively there's pregenerated Visual Studio project files in the
projects folder, in some common configurations. And cmake. And autotools
(./configure && make). So there are at least 4 ways to build for Windows
still.
