Initial Comment:
The following patch offers a better explanation in case
the MS VC++ (free) toolkit is installed but the .NET
Framework SDK is not.

Checked in, as is.  The style police will have to fix the
exceptions some other day.

I agree with that (blind copy-paste from another
exception-raising and text editing on my part).  Obviously
this should apply to all the distutils source.

looks fine, except a minor style nit:

+            raise DistutilsPlatformError, +                  ("The .NET Framework SDK needs to be 
installed before "
+                   "building extensions for Python.")

is better written as:

+            raise DistutilsPlatformError(
+                  "The .NET Framework SDK needs to be 
installed before "
+                   "building extensions for Python.")
