Afaiu, there is a problem with some specific version of MSVC that
generate code that doesn't work on WinXP/2003 so, you guys are now
talking about dropping support to such Windows versions, so this
compiler could be used.

Question: Does this problem would also affect the compiled client
library? Or do you guys also think nobody using Win XP/2003 will needs
to connect to Firebird? <g>
