Always seemed a bit daft to do this implicitly from the IDE (eg when I
set things up for stackless my ordinary stuff seems to see the wrong
paths). There is special code in there about version >=7 though.

        if self.__version >= 7:
            key = (r"%s\%0.1f\VC\VC_OBJECTS_PLATFORM_INFO\Win32\Director
ies"
                   % (self.__root, self.__version))
        else:
            key = (r"%s\6.0\Build System\Components\Platforms"
                   r"\Win32 (%s)\Directories" % (self.__root, platform))
