RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 232600

Details

Since /PDB:NONE is no longer supported in VC8, we end up with a bunch of "NONE" files littered all over the source tree. We should have a way to specify the proper flags when using VC8. Since we don't have an autoconf-based build for NSS, we probably need to add macros to tell coreconf what compiler we are using. There are a few other unsupported options like -G5 but those aren't as annoying as they just generate warnings, not new files.
Define MOZ_DEBUG_SYMBOLS in your environment before building with vc8. voila!
This appears to be a dup of bug 232600
