Thread: Buildfarm failures MSVC

Just so people know, I'm fixing those (tsearch-created make check failures
on msvc). It's been a bad week this week at work, but I hope to get around
to fix these beginning of next week.

IIRC the work left to do is to port the construction of the
snowball_create.sql file?  One thing that might make it easier:
I was planning to simplify snowball/Makefile to reduce the double-column
listing of LANGUAGES to just one column.  AFAICS the original purpose of
that was to support two different encodings of a language's stopwords
file, which is just dead weight given our agreement to use only UTF8
stopwords files.

Never mind that ... on closer inspection, it's got nothing to do with
encodings, it's about some kind of hack to use English stemming on
latin-alphabet words within the Russian configuration.  Interesting.

Got this fixed. Passes regression tests on MSVC.
