I don't think so.  What was the output of gccxml_vcconfig.bat?  It
should be safe to just run it again.

Yes.  It is supposed to just work.

Yes.

No, the native one should work.

No.  The whole point of the share/gccxml-0.9/Vc8/Include directory is to
contain copies of the VS header files that have been patched so that
gccxml can parse them.  The gccxml_vcconfig.bat file is meant to detect
VS installations so that it can copy and patch the headers.  The option

  -iwrapper"C:/Programme/gccxml/share/gccxml-0.9/Vc8/Include"

means gccxml knows where to find the patched headers.
