It's been a while that a failure to build some extension modules doesn't cause the "compile" step to fail; this just happened with the ssl.pyd module before. I'm guessing only on the release24-maint branch?

Yes. I backported some change which broke the build (not so on my own installation for a strange reason), and the buildbot didn't complain, either. I was surprised to see a bug report on SF that it wouldn't build.

More guessing: devenv gives a non-zero exit code when it fails, and a .bat script passes on the exit code of the last command it executes.

That's my theory also.

Thanks for fixing it, Martin
