It may work for some things, but I've definitely encountered problems,
particularly with DirectX and with debug configuration builds. From
what I understand, part of the problem is that Microsoft is using a new
debug format and has also started to compile a few of the modules in the
SDK with the /GS flag, causing link errors with VC++ 6. I believe the
last SDK that didn't have this issue was February 2003.
Ah true - now that you mention it, I did have a similar issue. I was
able to work around it with some digging. Can't recall the specifics,
but it's not important - dealing with dll hell is worse. I'll digg up
the discussion on that.
