Where are you getting your pythondotnet from?

I'd recommend checking out the latest source from subversion - you can see the 
file is there:

http://pythonnet.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pythonnet/trunk/pythonnet/src/runtim
e/

If that's missing it sounds like you might not have an up to date version in 
which case I'd be careful of just cherry picking that file.

If you've got a subversion client installed you should be able to get the 
latest source by entering at the command line:

svn co https://pythonnet.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pythonnet pythonnet 

If not http://www.sliksvn.com/en/download/ is a command line svn client,
or you can use tortoise - http://tortoisesvn.net/

In Visual Studio if you right-click the Python.Runtime project, choose 
properties then select the Build tab in the resulting dialog you'll see
under "Conditional compilation symbols" PYTHON25,UCS2 or similar. To target 
Python 2.7 simply change that to PYTHON27,UCS2

HTH,
