Not sure how it works in VC8 but in VC7 there were several false warnings. one example: cout << size_t(100) << endl; will give you a warning because the "unsigned int" overload is used to output the value. This could be a problem if size_t is 64 bits. But if size_t really is 64 bits, the int64 overload would be used so there is no portability problem here.
