I built it without issue using VC 6.  I do have a newer platform SDK installed
than what came with VC, though I am not sure the exact release as I don't
actually use it.  My guess that the newer platform SDK (which of course is
avaialble for VC 6 at no cost) may be needed.  I would imagine it defines a
version somewhere that could be checked with #ifdefs to compile in the crypt
only when the appropriate SDK is available, though I am away from my work
computer so can't really check that.
