I understand *that* much.

The problem (or rather minor nuisance) is there is at least one
package out there that built cleanly under B20 with Anders
Norlanders header set, because apparently windows.h *was* included
in sqltypes.h.

This package does not build out-of-the-box anymore on 1.1.1.
On the other hand building under B20, required installing
Anders Norlanders headers, so you can equally well say it builds
more easily on 1.1.1
