I meant "if it ain't broke don't fix it".
I doubt that some older versions of VC might need it. I confirmed
that the extra " actually harms at least VC2019 and the code
removal in the patch works. As for the replace comment, I'm not
sure it is needed since I think quoting is not the task for
AddLibrary/AddIncludeDir in the first place (and AddIncludeDir
doesn't have the same comment).
Now I'm trying to install VS2015 into my alomost-filled-up disk..
regards.
