So, as long as we require to build LO with MSVC, we can revisit the question

we can probably get there faster by ditching backwards ABI compatibility with
LO4 and switching to a different compiler for Windows.
What I'm curious is how the binaries generated from different compilers
compare on Windows. If their performances are more or less comparable,
then I could care less whether we stick with MSVC or gcc (or clang if
it's available on Windows). But if MSVC still produces more optimized
binaries, then I would be reluctant to support switching to a different
compiler (though my voice is only one head count, easily overruled by
the majority votes when it comes down to it).
