I don't have convenient access to VC++ 5, so I can't have a go
myself. Can anyone confirm what Kendall says?  If so, and assuming
nobody can come up with a sensible work-around, I'll update the list
of supported platforms.

Kendall (or anyone else), are you able to see if libraries compiled
with VC++ 6 work with VC++ 5?

Cheers,

Duncan.
