[issue6262] VS 2008 binaries

It's certainly possible to obtain them, if you create them yourself.
There won't be any further 2.5 binaries at all (regardless of compiler
version) from python.org

As for the distutils question: distutils has hard-coded knowledge what
compiler should have been used to compile Python, and prints that
message irrespective of what compiler was actually used. You'll have to
port distutils to VS 2008 yourself.
