Chris,
I have not, as of yet, gotten around to building OSG with VS2010SP1, but
in general I would say that if you are using VS2010, get the service
pack. It fixes quite a few bugs and there are some drastic improvements
in performance. The one woefully horrible piece of functionality is "Go
To Definition" which is still pretty slow even after the one time,
murderously slow database rebuild. I use 3rd party tools instead. Other
than that, I think it is a good set of fixes.

Chris,
I haven't been impressed at all with VS2010. The IDE tends to crash quite a
bit - annoying, but not the end of the world. I did have an issue with 64-bit
builds, particularly with Qt-4.7.x. Seems that there were byte-alignment
issues (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2280741). After installing the hotfix
everything seems OK, at least no problems that I could blame on the compiler
:). I haven't tried SP1 yet. I even tried looking for a list of fixes, but it
seems that MS doesn't want to publish them.
So my suggestion - if there is nothing wrong with the current development
setup, don't upgrade. The IDE is slower and buggier than ever. That being
said, it is (finally) generating proper binaries in x64 with the hotfix. The
last item I forgot to mention is that there are duplicate symbols between
osgDB::fstream and std::fstream that require the /FORCE:MULTIPLE linker option
to work around. Only an issue on 2010 builds.

I have one client who really wants to use OSG on 2010 (64-bit even!) and I'm
curious
about people's experiences with stability. Is 2010 generating good solid
binaries from the
OSG codebase, or are there still issues that we'll need to see if the SP1 fixes?
