I kinda don't like this patch:
turning off warnings isn't a good idea, I'd rather have a patch which
would get rid of the warnings by *solving* them.
I know the new 'secure' string functions aren't available in VS.NET2003,
but how about something like this:

#ifndef #WIN64
#define newstringcompare(a,b,c,d) strncmp(a,b,c)
#endif

and then change the code everywhere we use those 'unsafe' string
functions with the new ones, which will just fall back to the ones we
use now if we don't have the new ones.
