New submission from Eric Snow <ericsnowcurren...@gmail.com>:

Currently for Windows builds, generating the frozen modules depends on first 
building python.exe.  One consequence of this is that we must keep all frozen 
module .h files in the repo (which we'd like to avoid for various reasons).

We should be able to freeze modules before building python.exe, like we already 
do via our Makefile.  From what I understand, this will require that a subset 
of the runtime be separately buildable so we can use it in _freeze_module.c and 
use that before actually building python.exe.

@Steve, please correct any details I got wrong here. :)
