Summary: Ms VC 2003 not supported

Initial Comment:
The current msvccompiler.py has no support for Ms
Visual Studio NET 2003 release.
The registry keys are different than the original
VS.NET and NET Framework

File
"d:\repositories\python\dist\src\lib\distutils\msvccompiler.py",
line 114, in set_macro
    self.macros["$(%s)" % macro] = d[key]
KeyError: 'sdkinstallroot'

Paolo mentioned this recipe in private email.

The problems are some little changes is some keys in registry...
The MSVS is reported as 7.1, and at line 118 is turned to:
- vsbase = r"Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\%s.0" % version
+ vsbase = r"Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\%s.1" % version

The .NET framework is the 1.1,  and line 123 is:
- self.set_macro("FrameworkSDKDir", net, "sdkinstallroot")
+ self.set_macro("FrameworkSDKDir", net, "sdkinstallrootv1.1")

Note that the installation of VC71 *wants* this SDK, not the
old 1.0, so 
there is no confusion...
VC7 -> SDK 1.0
VC71 -> SDK 1.1

What version of msvccompiler.py are you using? Specifically,
what is its __revision__?
