the .Net 2003 compiler doesn't support the new manifest mechanism for
Windows Vista. You will run from one workaround into the next workaround.
I don't think that a self assembled .Net 2003 compiler / Vista SDK
configuration will work as a good reference for your MingW port project
to eliminate side-effects, because the side-effects of such a
configuration itself haven't been investigated.

The suggestion to copy the missing sal.h from a .Net 2008 Express
installation into the Vista SDK and then using .Net 2003
with this self assembled SDK isn't a real way. Where is the beef doing
so? Who should fix bugs based on side-effects for such a configuration?
