Ok, I'll probably try the Win8 buildbot first then.  I'll let you know
when it's available.

FYI, the VS 2015 requirements page seems to include XP as a supported
client OS (if I'm reading it correctly), and says the requirements are
the same as for VS 2013.  Of course, as you say it won't matter if
we're dropping XP for Python 3.5.

Ok, the buildbots are just VS 2008 and VS 2010, so no 2013 to worry about.
