Last stable release in 2002. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LCC_(compiler)
aka `_MSC_VER=1200`, Visual C++ 6.0, VC6, released in 1998. For best results `_MSC_VER=1600` (Visual Studio 2010) or newer is recommended. The required minimum seems to be `_MSC_VER=1500` (Visual Studio 2008). This is build-tested in AppVeyor CI.

- Pelles C: Unclear status, failed to obtain a fresh copy a few months ago. Possible website is HTTP-only. ~10 years ago I left this compiler dealing with crashes and other issues with no response on the forum for years. It has seen some activity in curl back in 2021. - LCC: Last stable release in September 2002. - Salford C: Misses winsock2 support, possibly abandoned? Last mentioned in 2006. - Borland C++: We dropped Borland C++ support in 2018. - MS Visual C++ 6.0: Released in 1998. curl already requires VS 2010 (or possibly 2008) as a minimum. Closes curl#12222
