Now, I know that this msvc behaviour can be disabled, but it was

I must have missed that discussion, but I can't see what the problem
is if such an override only occurs during the buildbot non-interactive
test runs? Isn't that what using -n in the buildbot test.bat did?
The issue was that Python unconditionally changed the behaviour of the
CRT, not only during the test suite. I'm inclined to agree that Python
itself (ie, pythonxx.dll on windows) has no business changing these
flags, but it should be up to the application - ie, either python.exe
itself, or exposed to the python app - the latter of which is what my
patch offers. Note however that my patch doesn't cause any .py code to
actually change the flags, just offers the ability for them to do so.
Curt's suggestion of redirecting to a file is better still - I'll look
at tweaking my patch to also offer that capability...
Cheers,
Mark
