That's a good suggestion: mfc42.lib isn't anywhere within my installation.
However, VC++ has always worked fine for me in building "Console
Applications", if that proves anything.

Perhaps another symptom is that when I try to rebuild Python itself, I get:

   LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "MSVCRTD.lib"

which also isn't anywhere in my installation.

Perhaps I need to install VC++ 6.0 with a different set of installation
options.  Anybody know which options?

Alternatively, I might be able to substitute some other libraries.  However,
after doing a lot of hunting and grepping, I haven't been able to track
where these things are called out in the project files.  Anybody know?

thanks much,
