Re VS2005 editor in Emacs mode (options->env->keyboard mapping)

We have been trying to upgrade all our C++ projects from VC6 to VS .Net2003
for a while (before VS 2005 arrived), and seem to be stuck now because of the
performance degradation seen for the same code when compiled by the new
compiler compared to being compiled by VC 6 compiler.
