are you talking about the '__declspec(dllexport)' madness ? If so, what 
do you consider to be old ?
I'm working with VC++ 6.0 here at work, and all the code needs to be 
'decorated' (an euphemism
for 'polluted') with that. Sadly, it appears a lot of 'programmers' who 
have been trained exclusively on
Microsoft don't even know that that is not part of any standard.
