Fail to build with MSVC

[upsuper]

I tried to build Servo with MSVC, but it fails from this crate.

The compiler complains that it cannot find "kernel32.lib", "user32.lib", etc. And after some investigation, it seems that the reason is that the configure script adds -TC to the compiler flag when doing the detection, which makes the compiler treat all these lib files as C source, and try looking for them only in the current directory rather than also searching in system paths.

I checked the config.log of Gecko when building with MSVC, and it seems there is no -TC flag there.

The complete log is:

[upsuper]

This is not because of the configure failures that "kernel32.lib" etc. are not found. It is because I have MOZCONFIG set with some value, and Mozconfig fails to find that file. After I unset MOZCONFIG, it works. Closing this bug.
