9800,build.bat works incorrectly because REM commands have illegal )'s in them,aoney@…,,"The Windows cmd interpreter badly handles )'s in rem statements, *sometimes* (but not always) closing ""if"" statements they are nested within. Per docs, parens are illegal in rem commands (see technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490986.aspx).

On my Win7 64bit box, this was causing bootstrap vc12 to go down bizarre paths. One potential fix is to escape the parens, i.e. use !^( and !^) instead of () in comments. I wish I were making this up (sigh).
