Description:
I compile mysql windows distribution on windows 2003 with visual studio 6.0 C++ standard edition.

After I compile source ( setting active project to "mysqld - Win32 Debug" ),
libmysql.dll is copyed to c:\winnt\system32 directory

( But Windows 2003's windows base directory is "windows" not "winnt" !!! like Windows XP )

Plz correct this bug.

How to repeat:
In visual studio 6.0 C++, Set the active project to "mysqld - Win32 Debug".

And Press F7.(Compile)

Thank you for the bug report.

Suggestion fix: change Post-build step

from: xcopy ..\lib_debug\libmysql.dll C:\winnt\system32\ /y
to  : copy ..\lib_debug\libmysql.dll %windir%\system32\ /y
