That was due to an ill-formed command line, which Jim repaired this
morning.  Zope trunk and Zope 2.9 branch are still failing on Windows,
though, with different symptoms now:

"""

I don't have time to look at it.  Since the Windows buildbot slave
`bbwin` doesn't have a C compiler, I suppose it's possible that the
old, canned .pyd files it uses are out of synch with the current C
code.
