Steve Dower added the comment:

FWIW, the problem in the original post is that '-DMODULE_VERSION="1.0.5"' is 
not quoted by distutils and the quotes are eaten.

This can be fixed by specifying '-DMODULE_VERSION=\"1.0.5\"'. There are no 
spaces in the argument, so the problem is that cl.exe eats unescaped quotes, 
not that we aren't automatically changing users arguments.
