I think that VS 2005 has a proper header for the intrinsics now, but I don't 
have access to it at the moment so I can't check. Can you please rewrite 
your patch taking this into account?

BTW there should be no need to introduce InterlockedExchangeBoost, just use 
_InterlockedExchange in the _WIN64 branch.
