I don't know. I don't use VS2010.
However, I suspect the option 1) fix should be applied anyway as it is
suggested by the comment in make_buildinfo.c.
Why the pythoncore.vc[x]proj project files do not use "$(IntDir)\" by
default, no idea.

I haven't tested, I work with released Python sources now.

I noticed though, that this issue is somewhat random.
I'm building from VS2013 command prompt, and I've just successully
built the non-patched make_buildinfo.{c|vcxproj}.
This made me wonder if the problem is related to cmd.exe
configuration, extensions enabled/disabled, and such.
