makefiles that are included in the source release archives, generated from
  the Makefile.vc6 files by the maketgz script. I also modified the root
  Makefile to have a VC variable that defaults to vc6 but can be overridden to
  allow it to be used for vc8 as well. Like this:

    nmake VC=vc8 vc

for CURLMstate in all kind of builds.

  server through a proxy and have the remote https server port set using the
  CURLOPT_PORT option, protocol gets reset to http from https after the first
  request.

  User defined URL was modified internally by libcurl and subsequent reuse of
  the easy handle may lead to connection using a different protocol (if not
  originally http).

  I found that libcurl hardcoded the protocol to "http" when it tries to
  regenerate the URL if CURLOPT_PORT is set. I tried to fix the problem as
  follows and it's working fine so far

Added -DHAVE_STRUCT_TIMEVAL to CFLAGS.

"comparison is always false due to limited range of data type"

Both triggered when using a bool variable as the switch variable
in a switch statement and using enums for the case targets.

Check for lowercase 'bool' type at configuration stage. If not available
provide a suitable replacement with a type definition of 'unsigned char'
in setup_once.h

Move definitions of TRUE and FALSE to setup_once.h
