Re: issues upgrading from 1.7.74 to 1.7.77 on MSVC15

For Issue #1,  I would change those _InterlockedXXXX to InterlockedXXX,  
for example,  _InterlockedAdd64 to InterlockedAddAdd64 (i.e., WITHOUT 
the leading underscore).

>At link, FXSemaphore produced tons of compilation warning
>Orginal line #58
>   FXuint getSize() const { return queue.getSize(); }
>Modified line #58

>Issue #3:
>After successful compiling and linking of Fox1.7.77 (with the above slight modifications), I compiled and inked with application with Fox1.7.77
>The issue i am facing relates to display of accentuated characters (like é, è, à...) in many dialog boxes.
>E.g. in Fox1.7.74, I used to do things like this:
>   FX88591Codec codec;
>   FXString stInfo = codec.mb2utf("Accentuated char à testing");
>   FXMessageBox::information(this, MBOX_OK, "Information", stInfo.text());
>However, this does not work anymore in Fox1.7.77, i.e. in the above example the dialog only displays "Accentuated char à" instead of the full string "Accentuated char à testing"!
>Any idea where this may come from?

>Any idea welcome.
