New submission from Lenard Lindstrom:
The cygwinccompiler.py module for distutils on Pythons 2.5 and 2.4 fails
with an exception for the latest MinGW tools.

ValueError: invalid version number '2.18.50.20080109'
For instance "ld -v" now returns "GNU ld (GNU Binutils)
2.18.50.20080109", not "GNU ld version 2.17.50 20060824". The extra
period between the version number and date causes class StrictVersion to
raise a ValueError. A fix is to alter the regular expressions in
cygwinccompiler.get_versions().
This enclosed patch to cygwinccompiler.py has been tested with the
current and previous linker as well as gcc 4.2.1 and gcc 3.4.5.
