It does (under vc\vcpackages). My development laptop's upstairs but I'll try out the command above when I get a chance later. While you're there, the HEAD version of Lib\distutils\command\build_ext.py still refers to pcbuild9 instead of pcbuild which is preventing extensions from finding python26.dll. It's a trivial fix so you could probably get it in faster than I can build and submit the patch. (I'll check later on and put a patch in if you haven't had a chance).
