[Boost-build] python-extnesion rule does not produce .pyd (leaves as .dll)

Hi,
I'm using Boost.Build w/ msvc-8.0 to build python extensions using
python-extnesion rule. It does work, but produced libraries are not
renamed to .pyd, so I have to rename the manually which is annoying.

I don't get the same problem using msvc-7.1

Is this a common porblem? Is there a way to fix it?

Thanks,
Artem.
P.S. I am sorry if this topic was already discussed. I did not find it
in any of the discussion, but may be I did not look thoroughly enough.
