Visual Studio has a terrible record for properly preserving build 
dependencies when it updates project/workspace file versions.  The 
GraphicsMagick configure program writes workspace files for Visual 
Studio 7.0.  Naturally, with 7.1 Microsoft decided to significantly 
change the XML file format from the one introduced with 7.0.  So it 
has to update the format, which causes some problems.

All of the UTIL projects are supposed to depend on the Magick and 
Magick++ projects.
