Build Errors on Windows 8.1 / VS2012 Pro / JDK 1.8.0-b132 [was: Build Errors on Windows 8.1 / VS2010 Pro / JDK 1.8.0-b132]

[Kevin Rushforth]

Thanks, Artem.

Yes, the version of Visual Studio that we build JavaFX with must be tied 
to that of the JDK. VS 2010 SP1 for JDK 8 and 8u. Probably VS 2013 for 
JDK 9.

Prior to that, we may want to fix any issues that prevent developers 
from building on VS 2012 or 2013.
