Which installs don't have it?  I just installed VC 2013 Community 
Edition at home (the Win7 machine was at work), this time a32-bit Win8 
and it also has the file, but I again needed to update the INCLUDE path:

SET INCLUDE=%INCLUDE%;C:\Program Files\Microsoft 
SDKs\Windows\v7.1A\Include

Do we really need it?  It says on the top:

# Win32.Mak - Win32 application master NMAKE definitions file for the
#     Microsoft Windows SDK programming samples

Which makes it sound like its intended for the programming samples and 
just setups up a bunch of variables/options.
