[Python-buildbots] Windows 2.7 Builders

Hello,

I was recently cleaning up my buildbot, clearing space, removing
unused software, ..., and decided to remove MSVC 2010 as no supported
Python uses that compiler.  Well, to my surprise, actually I forgot,
you do need MSVC 2010 *AND* 2008 to build 2.7 by default.  It has been
since reinstalled and the buildbot is chugging along happily.

With that, do we have any buildbots that use *just* 2008?  Or does the
2.7 compiler package from Microsoft contain the needed bits that are
provided by installing Visual Studio 2010?

I think my buildslave has enough resources to support another builder
for that configuration (VC9 only) if that is something we are
interested in doing.

Thanks
