The /VERSION:"x.x.x" linker option causes a LNK1117 error in VS 2012. For
the VPR lib (for example), we use this format:
/VERSION:"2.3.5"
But this is not the correct syntax in VS 2012:

Description:
------------
Microsoft linker version information option has format:
/VERSION:major[.minor]

The major and minor arguments are decimal numbers in the range 0 through
65,535.
The default is version 0.0.


To reproduce, install VS 2012. Open a CMD shell. Execute vcvarsall.bat for
VS 2012. The execute build_windows.py and configure as usual. When the VS
2012 IDE opens, attempt to build VPR.

I am working around the issue by opening project properties, selecting All
Configurations, going to Linker->All Options, scrolling down until I see
the Version setting, then clearing it (thus not setting a version). I
repeat this step for all VRJ libs I'm interested in.

Addendum -- My workaround appears to be insufficient. Even after working
around the issue as described above, build_windows.py seems to put nothing
in my install location.
