Alternatively, README.msvc could instruct users to run
src/systems/msvc/make.bat, which will creat Omsvc, depending what is
more convenient.

If you add files, you will need to add them to the file
config/get_MANIFEST
so they get included in the tarball.

There is not GMP variant of parilvl0.h. GMP is used for the level-1 kernel.
parilvl0.h exists in ix86 asm, x86_64 asm and C versions (and for some other
processors that do not run windows).
The level-1 kernel exists in 'none' and GMP version.
level0 and level1 kernel can be mixed freely.
So PARI support kernels none-none, none-gmp, ix86-none, ix86-gmp, etc.
but you probably only need to provide ix86-none and ix86-gmp.
(none-none and none-gmp are mostly for systems for which we do not have
a asm level-0 kernel).

Cheers,
Bill.
