Microsoft Visual C++ & Crypto++ v2.3

Hello All,
    After a recent question regarding this issue, I thought I might be
useful to post the following information to this list that was posted to the
Crypto++ list a month ago.  It may be particularly helpful to those trying
to use Crypto++ with the Free CTI Library and the SFL using the Microsoft
compiler:

    So, if you have problems building Crypto++ with Microsoft Visual C++
regarding recursive includes going to deep, delete the three mentioned
files...
