[sldev] Linker error building a Debug viewer from 1.17.0.12 sources under VC8

[Nicholaz Beresford]

I found a few quirks in my vc8 files and will make a V3.ZIP of it
later.

But meanwhile
- newview, properties, linker, input, ignore specific library,
   and add "libcmt;" to exclude the non debug library from the
   build
- newview, Source folder, right-click, Add existing

It does compile ... didn't try if it runs but I hope that
the function won't actually be called.

Dunno if you have it already, but I can also send you my
stuff to actually use the malloc_dbg functions.
