[issue25850] Building extensions with MSVC 2015 Express fails

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower added the comment:

For anyone interested, there's no issue with using the cross compilers even on a 64-bit system. The same code will be generated, the only difference is that the native 64-bit compilers can keep more in memory than the 32-bit cross compilers. For most Python extensions this won't matter (it matters for building huge projects like an operating system).
