(Whiteboard: [WebRTC], [blocking-webrtc-])

win32devicemanager.cc uses atlbase.h, which is problematic for people using the free versions of MS VS. Installing the 2003 SDK caused some problems with VS2010 (to be attached).

This is really unfortunate. The ideal solution here would be to have this code rewritten to not use ATL. The crappy solution is to add the configure test back, and force people using the free toolchains to --disable-webrtc to get a working build. Making people disable a huge chunk of cool new web functionality just because they're using a free toolchain is really crappy, though.

Did this get fixed upstream, or is it still an issue?

Gone in upstream/3.20 (and I think 3.12 as well)
