[Bioc-devel] Windows-specific build error of 'seqCAT' package

[Valerie Obenchain]

I think the problem was introduced in a contributed patch applied to
VariantAnnotation in devel. I've reverted the patch and expect
VariantAnnotation (and downstream packages) to clear up on Windows with
tomorrow's builds.
