When adding dcyl2, I only updated the Makefile.am
My guess is that VC has its own building mechanism.
Doesn't it use a file called .dsp or something?

Just update the building spec for VC to include the new
source files, being:

collision_cylinder_box.cpp
collision_cylinder_sphere.cpp
collision_cylinder_trimesh.cpp

I never use mswindows, but if you can make the change,
test it, and send me the updated vc6 files, I'll commit
them for you.
