Attempting to configure jake

[Phoenyx33 Cynaed]

I have downloaded the Jigsaw(Jake) repositorys per the instructions, I have
JDK8 installed and Visual Studio 12 installed. When I run configure from
the top directory it dies on the Visual Studio test as below:

configure: Found Visual Studio installation at /C/Program Files
(x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0/Common7/Tools//../.. using
VS120COMNTOOLS variable

Checking the vc\lib\amd64  there is no lib by that name. Checking Visual
Studio 14 I found that and copied it to VS12, re-ran cofigure, it needed
libvcruntime which I copied, re-ran and it needed libucrt.lib... this file
is found in Windows Kit/10/Lib. I am running Windows 10 so a mention of
this to Windows 10 users needs to be included or they won't be able to
build. Thank you for your attention.
