'stlport_vc6_debug' stands for 'STL linked against debug C runtime', 
while 'stlport_vc6_stldebug' stands for 'STL with debug code linked 
against debug C run time'. If you carefully checked that all your 
project parts (libraries, etc) link against the same C runtime version, 
you should check that they all consistently have the 'STLDEBUG' macro 
set (or all unset). STL automatically select the STL DLL to link with 
given the build target and the STLDEBUG macro.
