From the looks of it, why would one want to use VS 2005 at all if one wishes to use the same (relatively inferior) libraries and frameworks that came with MSVC 6.0?
Having said this, I must add that most of the changes that VS 2005 enforces are over-rideable via project settings and macros. So, it is possible for most of the implementation in MSVC 6.0 to be carried forward to VS 2005 with little or no change - however, this is not a good idea as the changes it recommends are desirable.
Why is backward compatibility important to you / your project?
