The admin have installed the previous version from:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=A55B6B43-E24F-4EA3-A93E-40C0EC4F68E5&displaylang=en

There is still a problem: in file bin\Vc8ex\Include\deque, line 341

	friend class _Deque_iterator<_Ty, _Alloc, !_SECURE_VALIDATION>>;

have to be changed to

	friend class _Deque_iterator<_Ty, _Alloc, !_SECURE_VALIDATION>;

(one of the ">" shouldn't be there).
It's building now, but it would be nice to have a fix for that.

And a support for the last PSDK :-)
