cool, the very first version is attached, and also in my repo under the
build/win-vce2010 in the vce2010 branch
but I wrote this as I come through the build, I hope this could be applied
to other visual version

the first strange thing, is that qedit.h have been removed from Windows SDK
7
I found a replacement here :
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsdesktop/en-US/2ab5c212-5824-419d-b5d9-7f5db82f57cd/qedith-missing-in-current-windows-sdk-v70?forum=windowsdirectshowdevelopment
but after that, there are some error due to including order
I know this is strange but I'm thinking this is due to the new SDK version
maybe it is possible to use the old one still on Windows 7

this is what I guess, I'll try to do the same and i'll update the how-to

as for pthreadVC2.dll: isn't this shipped with Pd-vanilla?

I have pthreadGC2.dll, pthreadVC.dll and pthreadVC.lib in pd-0.45.3/bin
but no pthreadVC2.dll, maybe one of those could be used instead
