Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

I'm skeptical about this patch. It seems like it could produce an
incompatibility with existing installations or deployment procedures. In
any case, the VS 2008 project files are not officially supported.

If VS 2005 is any similar with VS 2008 wrt. to manifests, I think you
can solve your problem by providing a CRT manifest in the directory that
has _socket.pyd.

I'd be rather interested in seeing the consequences of this approach for
Python 2.6.
