Please review: Bug ID: 6899737 JDK build fails in make/java/jli because of _vsnprintf macro redefinition

[Artem Ananiev]

Hi, Tim,

is this problem specific to the newest MS compiler only (and do we care 
of any other compiler when building JDK7 on windows)? If yes, we could 
change the condition to

#if !defined(vsnprintf) && !defined(NO_vsnprintf) && (!defined(_MSC_VER) 
|| (_MSC_VER >= 1500))

Thanks,

Artem
