This warning has already been resolved in a later revision.

This error, too, has already been resolved in a later revision.

So, what you need to do is to update to the latest revision. That being said, 
there's one more Windows build problem which still needs to be resolved. You'll 
see it when async.c is being compiled. It's a complaint about the Windows 
function CancelIoEx() not being found, even though it really does exist. For 
now, just comment out the call since it's in new code which isn't being 
actually executed yet.
