Note that this patch will break the loading of compiled modules on
machines without the MS CRT redistributable installed.

Yes, it's me ;)
I'm +1 on the feature but I haven't reviewed your patch. IIRC and unless
I'm not mistaken you can tell the linker to embed the manifest without
the extra mt.exe dance.

Mark Hammond [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment:
Note that we are actually using the linker to *generate* the manifest
(something linkers pre VC2005 couldn't do), so if we could tell the
linker to skip that manifest generation and embed it directly in the
DLL, it would certainly be easier.
New submission from Mark Hammond [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
The move to vs2008 has caused .manifest files to be created next to
distutils created extensions modules, rather than being embedded as
recommended by Microsoft.
