Using the corresponding versions of Python and MSVC is only important when you
are including the python interpreter support within Wireshark, i.e.
PYTHON_EMBED is defined.

The reason for this, along with the reason for rebuilding zlib rather than
using the pre-built DLL is that a process shouldn't use components (the exe
and any DLL's or libraries) that use a different CRT as memory allocations are
not transportable across CRT's.

To ensure consistency we rebuild zlib as it isn't too hard to do, but is far
to hard for the python interpreter.

When just using Python as a build tool the version doesn't matter, although
there was an issue reported yesterday when using Python 3.2.
