Comparing the link command which works:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\BIN\link.exe /DLL /nologo /INCREMENTAL:NO /LIBPATH:c:\python33\Libs /LIBPATH:C:\temp\venv2\libs /LIBPATH:C:\temp\venv2\PCbuild /EXPORT:PyInit__regex build\temp.win32-3.3\Release\Python3\_regex.obj build\temp.win32-3.3\Release\Python3\_regex_unicode.obj /OUT:build\lib.win32-3.3\_regex.pyd /IMPLIB:build\temp.win32-3.3\Release\Python3\_regex.lib /MANIFESTFILE:build\temp.win32-3.3\Release\Python3\_regex.pyd.manifest

with the one that fails:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\BIN\link.exe /DLL /nologo /INCREMENTAL:NO /LIBPATH:C:\temp\venv\libs /LIBPATH:C:\Python33 /LIBPATH:C:\temp\venv
\PCbuild /EXPORT:PyInit__regex build\temp.win32-3.3\Release\Python3\_regex.obj build\temp.win32-3.3\Release\Python3\_regex_unicode.obj /OUT:build\lib.win32-3.3\
_regex.pyd /IMPLIB:build\temp.win32-3.3\Release\Python3\_regex.lib /MANIFESTFILE:build\temp.win32-3.3\Release\Python3\_regex.pyd.manifest

indicates that the link error happens because the library path is incorrectly specified as c:\Python33 rather than c:\Python33\libs.

I will investigate further.
