I would really like to see this as release blocker, because the problem raised once in a while in the past and the windows people who are interested in getting console interface tools usually lack the knowledge of unix platform to do the task.

It certainly can't be a release blocker: there is no accepted PEP demanding it, it does not cause any crashes, and it is no regression over earlier releases.

For this to have any chance, it must work with Visual Studio. Requiring gcc is unacceptable.

Regards, Martin
