Great job. I apologize that we do not have any substantial documentation on 
getting started with Mapnik on windows or with VS. I would encourage you to 
document the steps that do work for you so others may benefit.

Hmm, so what mapnik version is this exactly?

The problem is basically that the parsing of that string is failing, and its 
hard to know what might be going wrong. The library used here is boost::spirit, 
so when you reply, please also indicate with boost version you have installed 
and how you installed it.

I know of one person who has done some work with Mapnik via .Net:

http://code.google.com/p/mapnikdotnet/wiki/Main

Perhaps you could check with him...
