Fixed issue with static build for MSVC2010.
After some investigation I've discovered known issue
http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=11240 When .rc file is linked
to static lib it fails with following linker error
LINK : warning LNK4068: /MACHINE not specified; defaulting to X86
file.obj : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'x64' conflicts with
target machine type 'X86'
Fix add target property /MACHINE: for MSVC generation.
Also removed old workarounds - it caused errors during msvc build.

Implement wrappers around strtod to convert the user argument to a
double with sane error checking. Use this to allow --max-time and
--connect-timeout to accept decimal values instead of strictly integers.
The manpage is updated to make mention of this feature and,
additionally, forewarn that the actual timeout of the operation can
vary in its precision (particularly as the value increases in its
decimal precision).
strto* functions happily chomp off leading whitespace, so simply
checking for str[0] can lead to false negatives. Do the full parse and
check the out value instead.
Update the build_vms.com to detect and use zlib shared image installed
by the ZLIB kit produced by Jean-Francois Pieronne, and the also the
future ZLIB 1.2.8 kit in addition to the older ZLIB kits.
Also fix the indentation to match one of the common standards used for
VMS DCL command files and removed the hard tab characters.
Tested on OpenVMS 8.4 Alpha and IA64, and OpenVMS 7.3 VAX.
I just noticed that OS X no longer supports SSLv2. Other TLS engines return
an error if the requested protocol isn't supported by the underlying
engine, so we do that now for SSLv2 if the framework returns an error
when trying to turn on SSLv2 support. (Note: As always, SSLv2 support is
only enabled in curl when starting the app with the -2 argument; it's off
by default. SSLv2 is really old and insecure.)
When doing multi-part formposts, libcurl used a pseudo-random value that
was seeded with time(). This turns out to be bad for users who formpost
data that is provided with users who then can guess how the boundary
string will look like and then they can forge a different formpost part
and trick the receiver.
My advice to such implementors is (still even after this change) to not
rely on the boundary strings being cryptographically strong. Fix your
code and logic to not depend on them that much!
I moved the Curl_rand() function into the sslgen.c source file now to be
able to take advantage of the SSL library's random function if it
provides one. If not, try to use the RANDOM_FILE for seeding and as a
last resort keep the old logic, just modified to also add microseconds
which makes it harder to properly guess the exact seed.
The formboundary() function in formdata.c is now using 64 bit entropy
for the boundary and therefore the string of dashes was reduced by 4
letters and there are 16 hex digits following it. The total length is
thus still the same.
