I think this is a frank bug for Pythons that use MSVC 10+ by default (3.3, 3.4 for example).

The lack of the /MANIFEST flag breaks the distutils.ccompiler.CCompiler.link_executable command - see attached setup.py example.  The example gives the error "main.exe.exe.manifest : general error c1010070: Failed to load and parse the manifest. The system cannot find the file specified."

We (http://nipy.org/dipy) ran into this because we were innocently using compilation of a 'main.c' file to an executable to check link flags.
