On XP (32-bit), I can compile python25.dll and python.exe for AMD64 now, after adding bufferoverflowU.lib to the linker options. On what project? There should be /GS- options on all projects that need it, which, in turn, should result in bufferoverflowU.lib not being needed.

Or I forgot to check that change in... Will do Monday. Ok, /GS- helps. No need to hurry - I would commit that myself but I only have readonly sandboxes on these installations, no putty, and so on. Error : Could not create new temporary options response file I've never seen these. I will have to study the source again, and find out how that could happen. Do you have spaces in the directory leading to the working copy? No. But your guess is somewhat correct: If I move the sandbox to a path with spaces in it, this problem goes away ;-). On the 64-bit box.

I forgot to mention that there are a lot of warnings about conversion betweem Py_ssize_t to int - if you want me to fix the obvious ones I'll offer to correct some of them from time to time and commit the changes. I wonder why gcc doesn't warn about those.
