hi Tor,

sorry, apparently i have difficulties expressing myself clearly:

what i meant was that, given that (if i understand you correctly)
--enable-dbgutil not working on windows is caused not by any code in LO
but only by use of the MSVC debug runtime, then --enable-dbgutil should
just not enable the MSVC debug runtime on windows.
