1. msvccompiler.py defines a method _find_exe(), but uses find_exe().
Easy fix -- thanks. Will check it in shortly.
2. The python/libs directory is no longer included in library_dirs when linking extensions.
Hmmm. Was it ever? And why is this necessary? Is it so extensions can link against Python.dll, or is it something else? Anyone out there been following the recent CVS tumult and trying to build stuff on Windows? Thomas (or anyone else on a Windows box with access to the anonymous CVS tree), if you're feeling hardy, you could try rolling back the command/build_ext.py file one revision at a time until either 1) the problem goes away or 2) things blow up horribly because of other incompatibilities. If #2 occurs, try rolling back all of Distutils a week at a time, or maybe 2-3 days at a time. Let me know if you want help with the CVS trickery to do this.
