Indeed it does, but maybe it has some weakness as compared to newer
versions.

Myself I'm not too interested in 64bit support though since there isn't even
a chance's hell in snowball that the project on my side will be able
to make use of it ATM.






Something related was stated in the script file itself BTW:
# - should continue with clean separation of .vcproj content parsing and .vcproj output
#   generation (e.g. in preparation for .vcxproj support)


The .vcproj / .vcxproj XML content of VS2003/05/08/10 all seem to be pretty
similar AFAIR, thus I guess there won't be too much trouble in getting
them supported.
But... it's - not - done - yet (or at least not verified by me to work on
anything other than VS2005).
But I'm always open to suggestions on how to add one's implementation to
the script ;)
