Thanks for the link. That method did not seem to work on Windows Server
2016.
I have found a solution that seems to work correctly, if not very
efficiently, on Windows 10.
Since I doubt that Windows Server machines will be called on very often to
build pywin32, I am leaving the script with a little message telling the
unfortunate user to install dotNET 3.5 manually.

Still I wonder what part of our build system requires something so obsolete.
