> MSVC 6 is an old compiler, released in 1998, but some people still use
> it, particularly those motivated by the C runtime linking issue.  It will
> be hard to maintain support without a smoker, but the Lucy mainline 
> should be reasonably close to compatibility right now, so it's worth a 
> try to see if we can build and pass tests.
