Thanks! I've removed it from the project file in cvs. Given the similar 
confusion in the .def file, it was probably just an oversight.

Ok. Another question: how much do you need to tweak the imported VC6 
project files to get good VC7 builds?

Our current thinking is that our user communities are split between VC6 
and VC7 users, so as we've said we'd like to support both. It seems like 
the only reasonable way to do that is to ship a source-based SDK. 
Obviously one set of project files would be better than two, and because 
there's no way to go back after import, they should be VC6. So is it 
possible to generate VC6 project files that work perfectly in VC7, or 
can the changes be reduced to something that would fit in a Readme.txt?

It probably still makes sense to ship binaries for one or two common 
cases, but if we do we'll plaster them with warnings.

In continuing cluelessness,
