I don't think you stand any chance of recompiling Python with any 
Borland/CodeGear compiler without a significant porting effort. However 
this is not necessary if you don't need to use Boost.Python. It should 
be sufficient to either add a user-config.jam file to your home 
directory or modify the une under tools\build\v2 and add a line like the 
following:

using borland : 5.9.3 : "C:/Program Files/CodeGear/RAD 
Studio/5.0/Bin/bcc32" ;

One place to look for Borland/CodeGear specific Boost information is 
http://bcbboost.sourceforge.net , but there's nothing there about 1.36 yet.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Nicola
