This error is due TzSpecificLocalTimeToSystemTime() not being available in 
some older (pre WinXP) development environments.  In the next muscle release, 
the #ifdefs will be fixed so that it is no longer a problem; however for now 
you can work around the problem by editing MiscUtilityFunctions.cpp so that 
the work-around code (directly above that line) is always used instead.  That 
is, change line 342 of MiscUtilityFunctions.cpp from

#ifdef __BORLANDC__

to

#ifdef WIN32

These errors are most likely because you are trying to compile multithreaded 
code with a VC++ project file that is set to single-threaded mode.  If you 
don't need the RS232DataIO or Thread classes, you can solve the problem 
simply by removing them from the project;  if you do need those classes (i.e. 
you are planning to do multithreading or RS232 serial port I/O) then you will 
need to set your project to enable multithreading.  (Note that the default 
muscle server doesn't use or need either of these classes; they are only 
there to support custom servers)
