Very Cool! And thank you to all who worked towards it.

There are still a number of .h files in the front end.  What will happen with those?  Do they need to be maintained?

For now they must be maintained by hand, if there is any possibility of the glue layers or backends needing them.  In the future we will hopefully auto-generate them.

Yes, it builds with dmc. But nobody uses dmc with windows.
It doesn't build with msvc due longdouble and other troubles.
Please, fix it.

It's the exact command below that line, we've incorporated that into the makefile.

In case it doesn't work b/c you added a new symbol, you need to updated magicport.json during the rebase.
