Ok. For what I have understood reading the PCbuild/readme.txt (I admit I never tried to build on win32 an hard module, like tk or bdb, or ssl), the building process of that modules is still mostly a manual job... "follow the Windows instructions for building the Sleepycat software"

It depends: yes for tk and sleepycat, no for ssl and bzip2.

I'll post something as soon as I've done some tries.

Please keep us posted. It would be good if it involved no more manual intervention than the current process; it would be a plus if the manual intervention would be reduced.

It would also be a plus if you could figure out some of the pending issues while you are at it, like how to stop the linker warnings when linking _bsddb.pyd :-)
