The .NET SDK (any version) is not suitable to build Python. You really need VS 2003; if you don't have it anymore, you might be able to find a copy of the free version of the VC Toolkit 2003 (VCToolkitSetup.exe) somewhere. Of course, just for testing, you can also install VS Express 2005, and use the PCbuild8 projects directory; these changes should work the same under both versions.
