IANAL, but it sounds like there is a difference between "writing derivative
work", and plain old "related, non-derivative work after looking at publicly
available source code".

It also sounds like "having looked at private microsoft source code" most
likely means you're an ex-microsoft employee or partner, which wouldn't apply
to MFC42.

Once again, not a lawyer, but it's worth doublechecking.
