The latter. Whenever you add, remove, or rename an extension module, you need to adjust the PCbuild files as well. (technically, you also have to adjust PC/os2emx/Makefile, PC/os2vacpp/makefile.omk, and PC/VC6, but these changes are waived). Correct me if I'm wrong, but in this case we are talking about adding a new directory to sys.path, correct? On Windows, this means a change in PCBuild/pyconfig.h and tools/msi/msi.py. A patch seems simple, so I'll check one in (assuming noone beats me) after clarification of a couple of points. * I assume lib-old should go at the end of the sys.path managed by the above files?

Yes.
