Pretty good news, IMO.

In addition to the C++11 and C++14 plans, Herb announced that 
Microsoft would complete the holes in their C++98 standard 
support by finally fixing their preprocessor and implementing
correct two-phase name lookup (39:18 in the video).

Perhaps the last discussion about these things [1] helped to
tip the scale. In any case, I'm glad to hear it.

Nate
