Mmh. I don't remember seeing Exult run on a Pocket PC. I know for sure 
that Embedded Visual C++ 3 will not support built-in STL (it can 
probably compile stlport, but I wouldn't bet on it since C++ support on 
EVC 3 with the latest patches is roughly worse than what we get in 
Visual C 6.0 without patches).

But I've already used it with EVC 4 and it worked fine.

I'd say than switching to STL will increase the WinCE build size and can 
possibly break the compatibility with older devices (Pocket PC 2000, 
Handheld PCs). However I think it's a good idea, at least for the other 
ports that do not rely on a broken compiler :)
