It seems the
best thing might be to modify the PCBuild8 build process so the output
binaries are in the ../PCBuild' directory - this way distutils and others
continue to work fine. Does that sound reasonable?
I think Kristjan will have to say a word here: I think he just likes
it the way it is right now. That would rather suggest that build_ext
needs to be changed.
I use this patch in ActivePython to get distutils to find the correct
PCbuild dir (see attached).
