Summary: Bulding source with VC6 fails due to missing files

Initial Comment:
I just downloaded the source for the 2.5 python 
library and tried to compile it under VC6.0.
The build process stops because there are three files, 
that cannot be found:

exceptions.c
md5c.c
structmodule.c

For the files exceptions.c and md5c.c it just seems to be a 
problem with the workspace file since those files exist in 
the source tree, but in different directories as expected.

For the exceptions.c, the VC workspace expects it under 
".\Python-2.5\Python" but it is in ".\Python-2.5\Modules".

For the md5c.c, there is a file called md5.c under 
".\Python-2.5\Modules", which could be the needed file.

For structmodule.c, this file cannot be found at all, 
though.
