C++ is an hard language to implement, and it's not easy to write a 
compiler with a hight conformance...
VC7 is far better than vc6 on this side...

Well, the C++ standard library is quite well defined. I've had only 
problems with not standard parts, as hash_set and hash_map, as for 
example, are different in Dinkumware and in STLPort and in the library 
that ships with gcc...

Another example is the C99 dynamic array support... gcc supports it, 
but neither VC7.1 nor VC8 can compile them... but hei they are not C++ 
(till now :)
