Comment (by neilgroves):

 After starting the resolution to this defect I decided that the unit
 testing is woefully inadequate for the MFC and ATL support. After looking
 at my Visual C++ express installation and discovering that MFC isn't
 included for free I have decided to start developing mock classes to
 emulate the ATL/MFC classes we wish to support. There are a large number
 of classes and I am part way through developing these.

 These new mock classes will allow me to leave the tests permanently
 enabled even on compiler / platforms that do not have MFC and ATL. This
 should produce a long-term benefit to the quality of these components. I
 will however need a few more weeks to complete this.
