Development builds no longer work on Windows XP

Description

The development builds no longer work on Windows XP. On execution you will receive the following error:


scummvm.exe - Entry Point Not Found


The procedure entry point InitializeConditionVariable could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll.


OK


Unfortunately archive.org doesn't appear to have archived the site for a long time and the builds only go back a month

I do know that a build I compiled with Mingw-W64 to test the commit to fix broken <2000 support works fine so possibly not an issue witht the scummvm code but with how it's compiled?

Looks like my previous attempt to fix this failed. I have now recompiled fluidsynth on buildbot for the mingw32 toolchain in a way that should not require features not available on Windows XP. Please check the next nightly works properly for you.

If this works, should also check Windows 98 as per bug #10613

Just tried the 1-6-2019 @ 10:20PM dev build on Windows XP updated with the POS Nov 2018 patches.

Receive this error now:
""The procedure entry point AcquireSRWLockExclusive could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll"

Noticed already mentioned in this ticket:
https://bugs.scummvm.org/ticket/10809

I guess if Fluidsynth (assuming that's the issue) requires Vista+ then next official build maybe post 9x-2K SDL1 and XP SDL2 final builds.

EDIT looks like pthread may cause this issue as well but haven't veried.

I can confirm that the development build now works on Windows XP and Windows 2000 (with BlackWingCat Extended Kernel 2.9b w/ QindieGL (for vmware)

Thanks for the report. Looks like the latest fluidsynth tweaks fixed the issue.
