[XML-SIG] Build problem on Win2k

[Brad Clements]

I have Python 1.5.2, trying to install XML v0.5.2

I have dist-utils installed (perhaps its too old). 

python setup.py build produces this traceback.. I'll start looking to see 
what's happening, but here's the info in case someone knows what's up.
