[C++-sig] Python.Boost + Python2.7 + VS2008 issues

[Niall Douglas]

Surely Python absolutely requires DLL support for its extension 
support?

Anything targeted at the Windows API will assume DLL support. You 
might fare better using a GCC ecosystem. Your proprietary device, I 
would assume, will use a GCC ecosystem anyway.
