But the OP was trying to build the library.  I appreciate that you
were trying to help, but your theory about the cause of his problem
was highly misleading.  When we say we support VC6 and VC7, we mean
it, and it doesn't do anyone a service to suggest that the library
can't be built or used with those compilers.

Yes, I'm familiar with the issue.

Right.  It's a completely different problem, though.
