I think you create it by selecting Debug instead of Release for rebuilding the
appropriate project(s) under MSVC++6. I forgot which readme talks about it, but
I think it's explained.

For a quick and dirty test, maybe just build your example as Release, since that ought to
connect with everything that's normally there, without having to build a python debug version.
