It certainly used to be enough, so I guess if they have bounced the
version of the VC compiler that's included in the SDK then yes, there
needs to be an upper bound on it.

What version is the compiler that comes along with the SDK reporting?
(not the VS Express one, the one in the SDK itself)

Guessing fromhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows_SDK, maybe
we need to say up to v6.1 for now?
