Ok, I tried to build with nmake as suggested by the official documentation.

Two issues:
1. On the build window I got:

2. Nevertheless, I did get the libpg.{dll,lib} files.
However, it looks like they are Release mode.

Is there a way to build a Debug version of the libraries?
I'm building my app in Debug mode right now and prefer not to mix the libraries.
Especially since I know Debug and Release version with MSVC link to a
different run-time.

Thank you.
