Missing _init_types in MS VisualStudio 2005 (PCBuild8)

Donovan Kolbly

Hi folks,

I was trying to build Python using MS VisualStudio 2005 (VC++ 8.0)
according to the instructions in PCBuild8/ and got a link error
in config.obj referencing _init_types.

I (barely) know enough about VS 2005 to add files to the project, so I
added Modules/_typesmodule.c to the pythoncore subproject, and that
seemed to fix it -- I can now build the python executable.
 
?

That's a known bug, and has been fixed in the subversion repository
since.

That's the correct fix, indeed.
