Research direction
Review the attached PythonFromC.zip reproduction and the migrated BPO issue 32371, focusing on the Windows build behavior described for C macros and delay-loading the Python DLL. Confirm whether the reported compile error can still be reproduced; done would require a clearly verified resolution, but the issue record notes “works for me” and has had no recent activity.
