yeah. I wonder if we can't just get away with:   if ($line !~ /^Microsoft\s*\(R\) Visual C\+\+ [^-]+ -
\D+(\d+)\.00\.\d+/)

That's still quite specific, but should work as long as they don't
localize the product name itself. I doubt they do that even in
Japanese/Chinese - Hiroshi (or someone else with a Japanese install),
can you confirm what the output from "vcbuild /?" is on a Japanese
machine?
