Can't compile on windows

Start by reviewing CMakeError.txt and CMakeOutput.txt, focusing on the failed MSVC linker checks for kernel32.lib and LIBCMT.lib. Reproduce the configuration with CMake 3.8.0 and Visual Studio 14.0 on Windows, then trace the repository's Windows build entry point. Done means the project configures and builds successfully on the reported Windows environment.
