I build my extensions on Windows 98 with MinGW.  I don't know if VC6 vs. 
VC7 makes a difference or not, since I don't own either one.

I think someone said something about the free VC7 requiring Win2K?  That 
seems to me like a dealbreaker for switching from MinGW to VC7, even if the 
VC7 is free-as-in-beer.
