Building from sources problem - VC 2008

[tk1]

I'm trying to build 6.7.3 x64 Q8 with VC2008. I followed the instructions but I have a probblem. I think it is a constant MAGICKCORE_ZERO_CONFIGURATION_SUPPORT name length problem. It looks VC9 truncates its name to MAGICKCORE_ZERO_CONFIGURATION_S.

What causes that utilities like convert.exe, compare.exe and so on are not build.

This are exe files from my bin dir:

Can anybody help me with this?

The truncated identifier is not a problem because it is still unique despite the truncation.

We're not sure why the build is failing for you, we just built ImageMagick 6.7.3-2, the current release with VisualStudio 2008 and it compiled / linked without complaint.
