Summary: VC8.0 build patch for AMD64 branch

Initial Comment:
Well, I managed to build amd64 branch with vs8.0.

why vs8? it's better for amd64 build. of course, I also used vista updated sdk as platform sdk.

also, something need to be done with Python25\Lib\distutils\msvccompiler.py, so this built can be build.

here is the patch.

I'm afraid this patch still needs work - in some cases you have simply
removed functionality which works today.  While that might be acceptable
for 64bit builds, its not acceptable for future 32 bit builds.  Any chance
you can make all the relevant changes conditional?

Thanks
