Yes, sadly, because of the rather large differences between MSVC 
versions, some projects stick to a specific (out-of-date) version of it. 
As the changes necessary to keep everything working with 2005 are 
minimal (AFAIK only the third part of the patch lvqcl submitted is MSVC 
2005 specific), it is probably a good idea to merge this patch.
