I see. I've looked a bit at the source now. As far as I understand, it 
would suffice to just comment-out this line in win32file.i:

BOOLAPI CancelIo(PyHANDLE handle);

I haven't found any suitable defines for an #ifdef, but maybe you have a 
clue?

My main problem right now is that I do not have access to Microsoft 
Visual Studio, so I cannot build.

Peter
