[issue7511] msvc9compiler.py: ValueError when trying to compile with VC Express

[Mike Mazurek]

Mike Mazurek added the comment:

In building pycrypto for python 3.4 I applied patch msvccompiler9_33.diff. After applying the patch there is an unassigned variable: KEY_BASE on line 67 of the patched file. 
After setting
KEY_BASE = "Software\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\"
before its first use I was able to successfully build pycrypto.
