[bug #40227] Various fixes for MSVC build of 4.0

[Christian Boos]

Follow-up Comment #20, bug #40227 (project make):

Thanks for applying!

As for the /STACK patch, the issue I got in my early tries was an exception
with code 0xC00000FD (STATUS_STACK_OVERFLOW). Now my problem is that I can't
reproduce it anymore, even with x64 bits and the "default" /STACK.

But googling for "make 0xC00000FD" shows quite a lot of such similar issues,
so I'm not (wasn't) alone with this ;-)

In my patch, 0x4000000 was indeed probably excessive and setting it to
0x400000 should be enough as it's 4 times the default. Note that if I *lower*
this value instead (e.g. to 0x80000) I can again trigger a crash but this time
with a less informative 0c0000005 exception code (STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION).
