New submission from Kristof Niederholtmeyer 
<kristof.niederholtme...@synopsys.com>:

When I change Py_UNICODE_SIZE from 2 (default) to 4 in PC/pyconfig.h, msvc-14 
gives the following error:
  _winreg.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol PyUnicode_DecodeMBCS 
[e:\kristof\SDR\sdrsandbox\w64\msvc140\Python-2.7.15\PCbuild\pythoncore.vcxproj]
  
e:\kristof\SDR\sdrsandbox\w64\msvc140\Python-2.7.15\PCBuild\\amd64\python27_snps_vp.dll
 : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals 
[e:\kristof\SDR\sdrsandbox\w64\msvc140\Python-2.7.15\PCbuild\pythoncore.vcxproj]

The problem appears to be that the missing function gets disabled in 
unicodeobject.c with
#if defined(MS_WINDOWS) && defined(HAVE_USABLE_WCHAR_T)
...
#endif

while _winreg.c does not check the availability of this function.

Thanks,
Kristof
