When switching from VC6 to VC7, it is worth considering how many globals and 
static variables there are in the application. Because VC7 CRT processes 
those statics in a very different way and different order, switching to VC7 
can mean much more work than expected. Unfortunately, it is not just a 
matter of compiler price.
