[Bf-committers] iksolver_plugin.c error, MSVC 2010 express project files.

[Pacific Morrowind]

Well this time I think I've found an actual bug rather than my low skill 
level being the only bug;
in IK_QSegment.cpp on half a dozen lines there is: [code]lmin = 
MT_clamp(lmin, -M_PI, M_PI);[/code] (same for lmax as well); and MSVC is 
shouting about M_PI being Undefined. However MT_PI looks to me to be 
what that is actually supposed to be; at least it compiles with M_PI 
being replaced with MT_PI, and from my limited understanding of that 
particular code file it looks right... is that an error or am I showing 
off my lack of knowledge /again/?
thanks;
