Summary: PGIRelease linkage fails on pgodb80.dll

Initial Comment:
Hi.  I'm interested in learning how to optimize Python
for Windows.  I have made a similar report as a
follow-on to Bug 1568243, but it's really a  separate
issue.

Let me emphasize that what I am about to describe this
is *not* a bug in the Python build system.  But it may
be worth calling out in the README file for PCbuild8.

When building PGIRelease to instrument the pythoncore
DLL, the linker fails because it cannot find
pgodb80.dll.  This file is required for PGO with Visual
C++ under Visual Studio 2005 and is shipped with the
Professional version, but not with the Express version
or (apparently) the Standard version I have.  Looks
like upgrade time...

I hope this helps someone else.

This has been fixed in the 2.6 trunk, where the PGO build is
done differently.  I will retrofit that project setting to
2.5 shortly.

I hate Microsoft. I have VS 2005 Standard also. Bill 
always sticks it to you in the end.
