This is strange.  My vs8sp1 install has 10 arguments in its definition
of that macro.  It should be defined in crtdefs.h, which is one of the
files that is copied and patched by gccxml.  Look in

//Applications/Applications/gccxml/gccxml_0.9.0/x86/Vc8/Include/crtdefs.h

for the definition of the macro.  Compare it to that in

C:/Dev/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/VC/include/crtdefs.h

How many arguments to they take?

Also, look in the registry for the key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\InstalledProducts

An entry for KB926601 should appear.  This is sp1.  Do any other KB*
entries appear?  What is the value of their "(default)" entry?
