It's a distutils (or an Express Edition) problem. The message comes from 
class 'MacroExpander' in 'Lib\distutils\msvccompiler.py'. It expects, 
but can't find the registry entry 
'Software\Microsoft\.NETFramework\sdkinstallrootv1.1' (the install path 
of the .NET Framework SDK). Maybe you could try to modify 
'msvccompiler.py' or create a dummy registry entry. I don't know if this 
value is used at all.
