   '#include <msvcrt/io.h>' is wrong. Here's what you should do:

 * '#include <io.h>' just as you would on windows
 * use '-isystem $(WINE_INCLUDE_ROOT)/msvcrt' in your gcc options
   (for those not using gcc, I believe '-I$(WINE_INCLUDE_ROOT)/msvcrt'
    would do too most of the time)

   Otherwise you'll run in the problem you ran into over and over again:
you #include io.h which #includes 'xxx.h' and it gets
/usr/include/.../xxx.h instead of '$(WINE_INCLUDE_ROOT)/msvcrt/xxx.h'
(or does not find xxx.h at all).

   You should not need to copy any header from windows. If you need to
do so then it's a Wine bug (well, there are probably still a couple of
missing headers, let us know about it when you find one).
