Started again from the top by first downloading the pywin32 tarball to a 
Windows 7/8 64-bit machine with Python 2.7.4 64-bit installed system-wide. 
The MS SDK v7.0 has been installed and initiated for 64-bit compiler 
support.  No virtualenv during this phase.  The following is the output for 
installing pywin32 followed by installing with pywin32_postinstall:
