-//  VC++ 8.0 warns on usage of certain Standard Library and API functions that
-//  can be cause buffer overruns or other possible security issues if misused.
-//  See http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/05/05/SafeCandC/default.aspx
-//  But the wording of the warning is misleading and unsettling, there are no
-//  portable alternative functions, and VC++ 8.0's own libraries use the
-//  functions in question. So turn off the warnings.
