Yes. Even if VS2008 remains the preferred compiler to build Python, and the only one used for official binary distributions, there are already project files for VS8 and even VC6 (in PC/VS8.0 and PC/VC6).  They are not guaranteed to always work, but are updated from time to time by volunteers.
Please open another issue.
