FWIW: I am using Boost.Python (very recent CVS) with VS 2005 Professional. I
know all boost/libs/python/tests work OK. We have 50+ extensions which also
work just fine.
Once you get past the compilation errors: you have to run the "manifest tool"
on the .pyd files. Example cl, link and mt commands are here (the page will
disappear some time in the future):
