I am pretty sure XSD/e 3.2.0 added some news files compared to
2.1.0. It will be a pain to figure out which additional files
you need to add.

A potentially better approach would be to make the nmakefiles
copy all the source files that need compiling for a specific
configuration of the runtime into a separate directory. Then
you can just delete the old files from the project and add the
new ones. We use this method to create the XCode project file
for iOS (see etc/ios/README) except there it is a GNU make
config file while you will probably need to come up with an
equivalent solution for nmake (see the "Toolchain" section in 
config-xcode.make).

Probably the xsde/cxx/stack.?xx files are not in the project?
