Summary: can't install pywin32-214 source (see #3094208)

Initial Comment:
Symptom: same as #3094208 but trying to refresh the tree does *not* resolve the problem (as indicated in that bug).  The problem seems to be a missing file: mapilib.i.  This is a SWIG interface definition file and it is not present in pywin32-214.zip (fetched today from SourceForge).  I attach (1) an "unzip -l" showing that mapilib.i is not present, (2) a grep-find of "mapilib" showing where it is included and (3) the build log that fails.

Message:
Where should I put mapilib.i after I obtain this missing file? I tried
sticking the file in pywin32-214\com\win32comext\mapi\src, plus a number of
other places, and my attempted installation is still failing with...

Message:
Yeah - you are correct.  The reason I hadn't noticed before is that the
source-dist also ships the generated .cpp files, so usually swig isn't
actually invoked.

You can grab the missing file at
http://pywin32.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pywin32/pywin32/com/win32comext/mapi/src/
and I've checked in a fix so it will be included in the next release.

Checking in MANIFEST.in;
new revision: 1.19; previous revision: 1.18

See also #3072046 -- but installing sources at c:\ was no help.  I'm pretty
sure the problem is the missing file.
