Should this be done?
configure.in could error out for MSC_VER < 1300...

***

While there, note that _MSC_VER is not defined in NSPR.
Would a s/MSC_VER/_MSC_VER/g be wanted?

I mean:
Afaict, "Mozilla" doesn't need VC6 support at all (in current NSPR version).
But maybe other projects do?

s/1300/1310/ probably.
No, but other companies/projects do need MSVC6 support.
Mozilla isn't the only user of NSPR.

Yeah, let's not go overboard with code cleanup.  Although code cleanup
patches are usually easy to review, too many of them can distract us
from important work.
