Martin v. Löwis added the comment:

I'm opposed to this patch. Any change to the MSI build process should
only be made when/after the default compiler for Python is changed. That
needs to be discussed on python-dev first, and I hope that the new build
infrastructure will *not* use the PCbuild8 directory (but perhaps move
rename that directory to PCbuild instead, or just upgrade the project
files in PCbuild).

In addition, I hope that VS 2005 will *not* be the next default compiler
for Python, but that VS 2008 will be the new compiler.
