Steps to recreate
Install MSVC 1.52c.
Create a new blank project.
Click compile.
"Unsupported 16bit application"

The msvc 1.5 compiler is a win32 program so it's not the compiler that is failing. You may need to install winevdm with install.inf for it to work properly. Otherwise a trace is needed.
