That's a shame to hear. Because you were building on Windows?
Or for some other reason? (I ask because, even here on the
Python lists, reactions like "Get a working O/S" are not unknown
in answer to questions like "How do I... on Windows?")

The gripe I've had MingW -- which is obviously tempered by the
fact of its existence and the huge amount of effort which has
gone into it -- is the difficulty of finding a version of all
the tools which pleases everyone. And/or of knowing whether it's
safe to mix "Stable", "Candidate" etc. release packages.
