[issue21292] C API in debug fails

[Steve]

Steve added the comment:

A bit more info:
- When building in debug you need the Pythonxx_d.lib.
- This lib does not come with the normal install (or any other install).  That part is fine and normal (you don't include debug libs with install).
- To get that lib you have to build Python in debug to get it.  This is too much, I should not have to rebuild a library just because I want to build MY application in debug.
- Copying the Pythonxx.lib file to Pythonxx_d.lib works for many basic functions, but for others, it is missing necessary defiitions (i.e. linking fails).
