There's one more thing we didn't take care of in our change: windows
platforms where people just install Python and run tests, so there's no
VC++ installed.

For them I guess we can use: r'Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion'
and look for the u'productid' value, and just make sure its not empty.

Would you mind checking that you have this key on your windows
plartforms ? I've checked on XP.
