Thats going to be a big problem going forward, all the compilers are going to full tightfisted compliance in the future, gcc was just one of the 1st to jump on board. MS will probably be slow on forcing the standards, but it's going to happen.
How about this, let me make the changes to get as much as I can compiling out of the box for gcc3.2, all my code will be tested out and compiled against both windows and gcc to ensure cross comptability, but I wont push any changes related to the deprecated headers.
For gcc to work outta the box right now for world just requires a few additional includes (stdarg.h needs to be put in a few places), and either a using namespace std; in the cpp files, or a reference to std:: for hex and dec. Very limited changes.
