Code:
#include <algorithm>
#include <winsock.h>

void some_func()
{
      int result = std::min (0, 16384);
}
Okay, it's a silly example - but the above code consistently gives me error C2589: '(' : illegal token on right side of '::'. I'm building with VC8. If I don't #include <winsock.h> the code compiles correctly but it doesn't matter if I #include <winsock.h> before or after including <algorithm>

I guess it might be due to one of my #defines but I've tried the code in a very minimal program and I still get the error. Is there anyone here who could try this (preferably in VC8) and let me know if they also see the problem?
