I used the Makefile, with the Visual C++ 2008 command line compiler on
Windows XP (SP3), to build a vanilla git on MinGW.
Viz:

    ramsay (pu) ms $ git checkout master
    Switched to branch 'master'
    ramsay (master) ms $ git rev-parse master
    423ecb0bb66e9d60b6667aebc2844e82205369a1
    ramsay (master) ms $ make clean >/dev/null 2>&1
    ramsay (master) ms $ make >ms-out1 2>&1
    ramsay (master) ms $ grep error ms-out1
    ramsay (master) ms $ ./git version
    git version 1.8.3.rc1.25.g423ecb0.MSVC
    ramsay (master) ms $

Also

    ramsay (tmp) ms $ rm git.o
    ramsay (tmp) ms $ make V=1 git.o
    compat/vcbuild/scripts/clink.pl -o git.o -c    -nologo -I. -I../zlib -Icompat/vc

    git.c(221) : warning C4090: 'function' : different 'const' qualifiers
    ramsay (tmp) ms $

Note that '-Icompat/poll' is passed on the command-line (it is split at -Icomp
above), which comes from:

    ramsay (tmp) ms $ git grep -n 'compat/poll'
    Makefile:647:LIB_H += compat/poll/poll.h
    Makefile:1235:  COMPAT_CFLAGS += -DNO_POLL -Icompat/poll
    Makefile:1236:  COMPAT_OBJS += compat/poll/poll.o
    ramsay (tmp) ms $

I have a patch which allows me to generate the preprocessed output file
and, after running it on git.c (=> git.i), I can see that msvc reads the
compat/poll/poll.h file. (from line 128 of git-compat-util.h).

Are you using a MSVC "project" file? If so, is it equivalent to the Makefile?
Has the "#include" behaviour changed between MSVC 2008 -> MSVC 2012?
