[Python-Dev] largeint.h and ver.h gone from VS.NET

[David Ascher]

As mentioned in:

http://groups.google.com/groups?q=largeint.h&hl=en&selm=epfeXXOYBHA.2060%40tkmsftngp07&rnum=1

largeint.h is gone from the VisualStudio compiler as of the
VisualStudio.NET release.

Python's build currently fails without the workaround mentioned in that
posting.

Furthermore, the file "ver.h" used in python_nt.rc appears to be gone as
well.  Not sure why we needed it.  Gettinr dir fo it seems to have no
ill effect =).  Anyone remember what it's for?

I'm having sre problems in the test suite though, which have pretty
wide-ranging effects.  

Is someone else looking at the patches needed for VS.NET, or should I
keep digging?
