Can you check what CRT your extension modules are linked with?
You can use depends.exe or dumpbin.exe /all to find out.

Python might seriously break if you combine different versions
of the CRT, so you really need to link with msvcr71.dll: not
msvcrt.dll, not crtdll.dll, and not msvcrt40.dll (and neither
msvcr70.dll). Linking with a static libc.lib is also incorrect.
