The binary releases are tied through a specific release of Python,
through associating the binary modules with a specific version of
pythonxy.dll. Therefore, you cannot use a binary release created for
Python 2.0 with Python 2.1.

Instead, you need to compile PyXML yourself, which requires Visual
C++.
