What I do not like about your code is that it imports distutils. On the other hand, the code in distutils.msvccompiler.get_build_version is so small and simple that it could easily be duplicated in ctypes.util; it could even be simplified more because ctypes doesn't work in Python < 2.3. What do you think?

What I do not like about your code is that it imports distutils.
On the other hand, the code in distutils.msvccompiler.get_build_version
is so small and simple that it could easily be duplicated in ctypes.util;
it could even be simplified more because ctypes doesn't work in Python < 2.3.

What do you think?
