Umm, could you name one?  VC7 is a compiler to me.  I don't what it means to
add a compiler feature to Python, so transformed the suggestion into one I
understood.

I don't know, but doubt it, and Windows users are conspicuous by absence on
the public Zope dev mailing lists.  Regardless, Zope strives to be a
platform-neutral application, so I've never been surprised that Zope Corp's
interest in Windows-specific Python work has been undetectable.
