I am using an application called Somnologica that has with at a SDK for writing plugins. It is provided as a static library and header files. 

It is heavily coupled with MFC 6.

Currently I need to use Visuall C++ 6 to compile these plugins but I am getting very tired of using an 9 year old compiler. I would much rather be using Visual C++ 8 ( even 7.1 would be a huge improvement).

Any ideas on how I might go about this?

One strategy I have considered is using VC++ 8 including VC 6's header files and MFC but this seems like it would fraught with difficulties as I've got no idea what changes have been made to the binary layout of classes etc.
