I think Tim's change which makes it possible to correctly
identify the compiler used to build Python makes a lot of
sense. So I'm happy to include this in the patch. I'll also
remove the Alpha code. I will test it with the version 6 and
7 compilers using python 2.3. I'm very busy these days so it
may take me awhile.

On a slightly different subject, I think you guys should
consider switching over to the version 7 compiler. Version 6
is over 6 years old. The version 7 compiler is nearly a year
old and a new version is on the horizon. Since I've been
building Python with the version 7 compiler I've identified
and f ixed the few problems necessary to get it to work and
would be happy to provide Version 7 project files. This
would make it easy for people to use either compiler, which
in turn would make it easier for you to eventually make the
transition to a newer compiler.
