Just checked with following steps

1. Opened command window (cmd.exe)
2. Clone libssh2 from GitHub (git clone https://github.com/libssh2/libssh2.git)
3. Change dir to libssh2 (cd libssh2)
4. Create folder build (mkdir build)
5. Change dir to build (cd build)
6. Generate build for MSVS 2015 (cmake .. -G"Visual Studio 14 Win64")
7. Build it (cmake --build . --config Release)

And see no any problems :(

Could you please be more specific?
For example provide generator log for your "bug".

Thank you.
