I managed to compile in the meantime.

As I have Visual C++2008, I had opened the povray.sln file in the VC2008 folder
and this generated the fatal error, both in debug and release mode.
However when I used the povray.sln file file in the VC 2005 folder, the
compilation went smoothly !

Mysteriuous, byt then again I'm a total newbie at compiling.
Thanks for the suggestions though..
