No, it's the compiler that ships with the Platform SDK.

Notice that the feature (runtime error handlers) is not a feature of
the compiler at all. Instead, it is a feature of the CRT, and
apparently, the SDK ships with a different version of the CRT than
VC8.

I would prefer a solution based on tool-and-library defines.
