Hi,

what are the goals of VS2005 support for building LLVM? I'm syncing to the v3 branch and while the branch compiles perfectly with VS2008, there are a significant amount of compile errors and warnings with VS2005 SP1 (8.0.50727.867 with KB926601 SP1, to be precise). I also have the latest WSDK installed.

A few months back there were only a few minor issues that I managed to clear up. I'm going to try and fix up my local copy but is it worth my time - should I just move to VS2008 and accept that VS2005 support is being slowly deprecated?

Thanks,
- Don
