In the build directory there are also VC8, VC9 and VC10 folders containing
solution files for Visual Studio 2005/2008/2010 respectively.
If you use newer versions to build libupnp, eg Visual Studio 2003 or later,
then you need to rebuild the pthreads package so it uses the same VC runtime

If you also use a newer version of pthreads-win32 then you should also
replace the header files in that directory structure (obviously).
