In Visual, you heve to set up that option in the menu
"Tools->Options->Directories".

There you will see differents categories "Include Files", "Library Files",
 etc ...  and a list of directories for each category.

You have to make sure that the STLPorts include directory is BEFORE the
visual include directory in the "Include Files" directory list.

Otherwise there is an other mistake in that file:

   You have to add the NeL src directory in the "Include Files"
   directory list :

      ex: D:/test/code/nel/src

Oops there is a mistake is not the "Library Files" category but the
"Include  Files" category ...

... and here, that's not "the STLPort library directory" but 
"NeLlibrary directory"

I will fix the INSTALL file, sorry about that.
