I think there are some issues with the current GGCL and MSVC, but I
think the new interface simplifies things a bunch, which will make it
easier to deal with MSVC. However, one possible problem could be the
global functions inducing a need for partial ordering, which only
sometimes works with VC++.  I'm going to check all my new prototype
code against VC++ and Metrowerks this weekend. I'll let you know how
it goes.

Cheers,

Jeremy
