As I said, I will revert it.

Does still not work. Also note that I try this on machines where Visual Studio
2008 *is* installed, so it should not be neccessary AT ALL.
What works (win XP, SP2, x86): Building Python from source (complete, with tcl/tk,
bsddb, and sqlite) in release mode. Testsuite passes, with some small failures.
In debug mode, building all this also works, but when I try to import sqlite3
(or tkinter?) a messagebox is shown that MSVCR90.DLL is not found. The same happens
when I try to start wish84.exe from the tcltk/bin directory that was built according
to the instructions.
Here is what I tried to solve this problem (but was not able to):
- copy MSVCR90.DLL into the PCBuild directory.
- copy *all* the files from VC\redist\x86\Microsoft.VC90.CRT into PCBuild
- copy the VC\redist\x86\Microsoft.VC90.CRT *folder* into PCBuild
- download the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)"

 and install it
Strange.
