I guess this error message indicates an effect of your problem, not its
cause. The lines directly above that might come closer:
>     from xml.etree.ElementTree import *
> ImportError: No module named etree.ElementTree
Although, according to the documentation
<http://docs.python.org/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html>,
xml.etree.ElementTree should be part of python since version 2.5, not
all interpreters seem to ship with it

The python version should be ok, but you might need to either use a
different python /implementation/ or to separately install ElementTree.
Which of these, I'm not sure, as I'm not building on Windows myself.

I hope this helps.
