I'm holding back from a 64-bit build of the Win32(?) OpenSSL installer

development tools. I installed Python recently and pretty much
instantly regretted doing so as it hosed portions of my dev.
environment. So I'm dreading the VS install.
Why can't you use the compilers that are provided as part of the free
Windows SDK 6.0 download?
IIRC, the last time I attempted a PSDK update (I'm pretty sure it was
Windows SDK 6), it hosed my entire [existing] VS setup such that I could
no longer build _anything_ - forcing me to downgrade back to an older
local copy (and even that took a bit to fix). The last time I did an
upgrade to VS itself, it silently hosed the Win32 OpenSSL build.
My dev. environment is highly customized. And very picky. Haven't run
into a dev. tool yet that didn't destroy some setup I've got during its
install procedure.
