I'm neither a C guru nor an MSVC++ guru

This is a problem. Porting complex XS modules to Windows is not a job for a novice. Unfortunately there are very few people that actually are good at doing this, so I'm not sure you'll find good help here.

But, if I'm all you've got, here's my guess - I bet it's a macro-expansion problem, so you need to look at the macro-expanded output. I don't even remember how to do that with gcc, nevermind MSVC++, but that's what I'd do. I'd be curious in particular about the stuff inside the call to newSub(). It looks excessively tricky from here.
