(Alexandre, the MSVC build files are in PCBuild.
the PC/Vxxx directories try to support older compilers)

For some yet unknown reason, MSVC's linker fails to resolve
_stringio's module initializer (PyInit__stringio). This probably means
the module is not build correctly. Therefore, I am removing Windows
support temporarily until I find how to add new modules properly for
MSVC.

Removed Windows support temporarily.
64bit bug with integer unpickling is now fixed.

before passing it to io.StringIO.write().

  deprecated mimetools
........

small fixes by Barry.  This removes mimetools from the stdlib.

the standard library.  There are still a few cases of it in Demo and
Tools, but that's fine for now.  These should eventually get cleaned
up.  mimetools still has an import of rfc822, but mimetools itself
should go away.

Added the encoding, errors, line_buffering attribute to io.StringIO
make more compatible with TextIOWrapper's API.

I don't have any win32 machine in my reach. So, I can't test this.

Correct the exported symbol for extension modules built by distutils

with non-ascii characters.

This is the simple fix, which uses the FileSystemEncoding.
Replacing all the char* with unicode strings is a major rewrite,
and needs more thinking.
