Actually it is really easy to compile libftdi on Windows, with MSVC
(currently I'm only interested in the dll itself, not the other stuff).
Inside a MSVC command prompt, I have built libftdi.dll with this command
line:
cl /Ox /LD -I ..\..\libusb-win32-bin-1.2.6.0\include ftdi.c
/Felibftdi.dll ..\..\libusb-win32-bin-1.2.6.0\lib\msvc\libusb.lib
I had to specify the path of the libusb import library and the directory
of the libusb include file.
Unfortunately the libusb include file must be renamed or copied
from lusb0_usb.h to usb.h.
This library does not define any exported functions, I have made a patch
that fixes this which is appended.
Would a patch like this (it is against the libftdi-0.x branch of the git
repository) be accepted?

PS: Building with CMAKE also works on windows, although again I only
tested building the DLL itself, neither examples, docs, or whatever.
