This looks like a VC installation/configuration problem to me.  The
file you mention is not part of the DGD distribution.

Don't forget to turn off optimization when you compile with VC6, by
the way -- optimizations that are safe for VC4, which I use, turn
out to be unsafe for VC6.

I've never seen that one before.  Perhaps you're compiling on a
NT or Win2000 system where you have insufficient access rights?
