It would help to post the surrounding lines from the
llmessagethrottle.cpp source in the version of the source you're
using.

Also, it's not uncommon that some of the changes aren't documented
until after the compiler is out of beta. You may well be experiencing
changes before the Visual Studio team is aware of them.

You shouldn't need to install XP. Many people are using the free
express version of Visual Studio 2005 with success. There's a JIRA
that carries current versions of the project files, which should be
referenced from the build instruction page.
