  Fix the x64 Windows build environment used by the buildbots.  %VS90COMNTOOLS%\vsvars32.bat is fine for 32-bit builds, but doesn't work for x64 builds, regardless of /MACHINE:AMD64 and /USECL:MS_OPTERON flags passed to cl.exe.  Launch the x86_64 cross compilation environment via '%VS90COMNTOOLS%\..\..\VC\vcvarsall.bat x86_amd64'.  I don't have access to any systems *without* Visual Studio 2008 Professional installed (i.e. just Express Edition), so I can't test if x64 compilation works w/ VS Express at the moment.

  Additionally, force a clean in our build.bat files before building, just whilst we're going through these build system updates.

  And finally, add in the missing MACHINE=AMD64 option to our Tcl/Tk x64 build.

Comments on building tcl/tk for AMD64 with the MS SDK compiler
==============================================================

I did have to build tcl/tk manually.

First, I had to build the nmakehlp.exe helper utility manually by executing
   cl nmakehlp.c /link bufferoverflowU.lib
in both the tcl8.4.12\win and tk8.4.12\win directories.

Second, the AMD64 compiler refuses to compile the file
tcl8.4.12\generic\tclExecute.c because it insists on using intrinsics
for the 'ceil' and 'floor' functions:

  ..\generic\tclExecute.c(394) : error C2099: initializer is not a constant
  ..\generic\tclExecute.c(398) : error C2099: initializer is not a constant

I did comment out these lines; an alternative would have been to use
the /Oi- compiler flag to disable the intrinsic functions.
The commands then used were these:

   svn export http://svn.python.org/projects/external/tcl8.4.12
   cd tcl8.4.12\win
   REM
   echo patch the tcl8.4.12\generic\tclExecute.c file
   pause 
   REM
   cl nmakehlp.c /link bufferoverflowU.lib
   nmake -f makefile.vc MACHINE=AMD64
   nmake -f makefile.vc INSTALLDIR=..\..\tcltk install
   cd ..\..
   svn export http://svn.python.org/projects/external/tk8.4.12
   cd tk8.4.12\win
   cl nmakehlp.c /link bufferoverflowU.lib
   nmake -f makefile.vc TCLDIR=..\..\tcl8.4.12 MACHINE=AMD64
   nmake -f makefile.vc TCLDIR=..\..\tcl8.4.12 INSTALLDIR=..\..\tcltk install
   cd ..\..
