[python-win32] Build 219, adodbapi: no module apibase

[Vernon D. Cole]

Dear Edward:

  I feel your pain.  The whole idea of including adodbapi as part of
pywin32 was to eliminate having to download and install it as a separate
product. Having it broken in this release sadly means a trip back in time
to the bad old days.  Here are the steps I took to attempt to reproduce
your problem:
  1) create an new Windaws 8.1 virtual machine on Azure
  2) install Python 2.7.8 32 bit from python.org using msi.
  3) instal pywin32 v 219 for 32 bit Python 2.7 from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32
  4) put a "python" command on the search path using the method of my choice
  5) download adodbapi from http://sourceforge.net/projects/adodbapi
  6) unzip adodbapi
  7) running *as an administrator*,in the unzipped directory, "python
setup.py install"

And that should do it.
