Thanks for the report,

Hi, John, etc.  I checked-out current revision (8396 I believe), tried to
build using python setup.py build, got error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat.
Googled, determined that it was something I'm supposed to get w/ a VC
runtime, so grabbed the most recent version (VC2010 or some such),
installed, determined that I now have a vcvarsall.bat and added it's
location to my path, but am still getting the error.  Any ideas?
Windows 7 home prem. 64 bit.  Python 2.6.  Thanks!
