I assume you try to build from the tarball downloaded from
www.python.org.

This one has the problem (which will be fixed in 2.3.3 final) that the
make_versioninfo.dsp file has unix-style line endings, and MSVC refuses
to load the project file then.  (The make_versioninfo project creates
the header file you mention).

Try to convert make_versioninfo.dsp to DOS stype line endings (loading
it into wordpad - not notepad - and saving it again is one possibility),
reload the workspace and it should build.
