FWIW, I did:

svn co http://svn.python.org/projects/python/tags/r31/ py31

Open pcbuild in Visual C++ 2008 Express. OK on the warning about
solution folders.

Right click "python" and choose "Build".

Works OK here. Also works if I download Python-3.1.tgz from python.org
and unpack it using (command line) bsdtar. I wonder - did you use
WinZip to unpack the archive? That has some sort of brain-damaged
"Smart" CRLF conversion for tar files, which may have screwed up your
files.

Paul.
