Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com> added the comment:
The problem has two causes:
- IOError is raised when no compiler is found. DistutilsPlatformError
should be used instead, this was fixed by #4702.
- the distutils.util.grok_environment_error function transforms a
IOError("Unable to find vcvarsall.bat") into "error: None".
This function should not be used IMO. Its docstring claims that it
"Handles Python 1.5.1 and 1.5.2 styles", but str() does a better job...
Patch attached.
