Downloaded Python 2.3.3 and tried building it with VC++ 7.1 on Windows XP. Got an error message that my cygwin perl is the only perl installed on my system and I need ActiveState Perl. Trouble is, I do have that, but it is installed in a non-standard location. The build_ssl.py only looks in two directories for versions of perl. I suggest it should additionally do "which perl" or something similar to find the first Perl in the users path.
