missing bscmake.exe during debug build on Windows

[Gilles Duboscq]

Hi,

Which version of Visual Studio/Windows SDK are you using?
It looks like a problem from the Windows SDK [1].

We should probably change the VS project files/project files generator to
not need this but there are at least 2 or 3 people working on Graal with
Windows here so I'm surprised they didn't run into the problem yet.
