Description
We still handle at a number of places ancient historic _MSC_VER  versions of Visual Studio releases e.g. pre VS2013 (VS2013  has _MSC_VER 1800).
This should be cleaned up, as long as it is not 3rd party code that we don't want to adjust.

Currently still supported ("valid") VS version are 2017+, see  https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/make/autoconf/toolchain_microsoft.m4 .
