That's what's happening right now with Subversion. The Python 2.4 distro
is built with VS.NET (2003, I think). HTTPD is built with MSVC 6.
Subversion tries to link with both. So right now, we're stuck with
either providing only Python 2.3 bindings, or not being able to use an
HTTPD from the apache.org installer...
