I know I said I will not return soon, but I finally realised that stupid
Visual C++ is to blame for my original compilation error, not anyone from
Boost or the Intel compiler writer team.

For some reason, the order in which you specify include paths (for crying
out loud!) matters in Visual C++!!!

That means I must specify STLPort include path first, then stupid VC98
include path.  Now I am down to one compilation error, using my
much-reported compilation setup :

Compiling...

libs3_qt.lib - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

Any ideas? (Except for checking my include path specs again :) )
