Thanks for the report, Black Dew. I'm going to update the install docs to more strongly recommend that users use Python 2.5 in preference to Python 2.6. I happen to know, for example from the Windows buildbot that we run -- http://allmydata.org/buildbot/ waterfall -- that mingw can reliably build modules for Python 2.5.
Would you like to contribute a buildbot? This would entail letting the Tahoe project run builds on your Windows computer so that we can track progress of building for Python 2.6 with mingw and/or msvc (depending on your system configuration). Now as to your current problem with pycryptopp -- I suppose this is because the one on the testgrid was built (by me) with mingw. Maybe we should try building it with MSVC? Or, per http://bugs.python.org/ issue3308 , perhaps we just need to remove all uses of 'localtime'? Uh-oh, grep tells me that there are no instances of 'localtime' in _pycryptopp.pyd. Hm. Any ideas? Meanwhile, like I said, I'm going to change http:// allmydata.org/source/tahoe/trunk/docs/install.html to guide people to install Python 2.5 and not Python 2.6.
