Comment (by cdavid):

 Ah yes, sorry, I was mislead by Program Files (x86). I assumed that you
 built for 64 bits - and no free VS can do that, the only free version of
 MS compilers targeting 64 bits are through the Windows / Platform SDK.

 Anyway, I don't see this error with MSVC 9 on a 32 bits windows, so I am
 wondering whether this is a problem with building for 32 bits from a 64
 bits OS. Since this is basically cross compiling, I would have actually
 been surprised if that worked. I will look into it, but I am afraid it
 won't be easy. You are using 32 bits or 64 bits python ?
