IIRC, no.  Python skipped that version of MSVC.  I believe Python 2.5 
builds easily with vc8 project files in svn though.

What problems specifically?  The only practical problems you should see 
will arise if you try and pass a "FILE *", or allocate memory you then 
ask python to free (or vice-versa) - both should be avoidable though...
