The attached patch no longer defines InterlockedExchangeBoost(). Compiler 
intrinsics are now used for InterlockedExchange when compiling with VC8 or 
higher under x86 and AMD64.

The patch works for VC71/x86 (where nothing has changed), VC8/x86 and 
VC8/AMD64.

Could you please check in the toolset for VC8/AMD64?
