[Python-Dev] Windows Toolchain

[Eric Pruitt]

The problem appears resolved again and I have two posts on the issue on my
blog located at http://subdev.blogspot.com/. I was missing an MSVC++
run-time DLL and re-installing Visual C++ Express fixed the problem. A bit
of a somewhat random note -- looking through some of the buildbot output for
Python 3.1, I noticed that at one point, the bot compilations had the same
issue; Google Cache<http://74.125.95.132/search?q=cache:oadoPcYTjW8J:www.python.org/dev/buildbot/3.x/x86%2520XP-4%25203.x/builds/606/step-compile/0/text+LINK+:+fatal+error+LNK1181:+cannot+open+input+file+%27.%5Cpython31_d.lib%27&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&client=firefox-a>
