I have looked at a couple of build tools (scons was probably one) that generate Visual Studio project files in the past and they produced fairly poor project files, which would compile the code but wouldn't be as capable as project files created by hand. Its been a while so I can't remember the details. The current Python project files are hierarchical, building several DLLs and an EXE and I think this was outside the scope of the tools I looked at.
