Trent, FYI, on my box the invariable cause for

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file './python25_d.dll'

in a failed buildbot Windows compile step is that some previous run left behind a python_d.exe process that won't go away. I don't know why it won't go away on its own, or how it gets into that state, but I do know that once it happens it never fixes itself. You have to find the python_d process(es) and kill it yourself. Then the buildbot dance works fine again.
