Ah. I'd missed the ".1". So there is no free version of the compiler
used to build the official Python Windows distribution. In that case,
I agree - there's no way this could work (at least, other than by
unsupported mixing of runtimes, which may work by accident :-)).
Thanks for pointing this out,
