When we discussed VC versions (back when we met in Ofxord during PythonUK/ACCU), David Abrahams seemed adamant that VC7 and VC6 are indeed compatible -- as he has first-hand experience while I just have horror stories from ex-coworkers I suspect he's likelier to be right. Anyway, I'm CC'ing him since I do suspect he has relevant input and might not be following python-dev right now... Alex
