Ok, I know there are already a million posts on this group about getting Python to build with MinGW. I've been through many of them, and have still not found a good comprehensive way to accomplish this.
I've got Cygwin 5.1 with GCC 3.3.3 on it. I'm using Python 2.4.
Note: You invoke the mingwin compiler *indirectly*, by running gcc with the -mno-cygwin option.
So first of all, I tried exporting CC='gcc -mno-cygwin', configuring, and making. You end up getting file-not-found errors, because some of the include files aren't present for mingw.
Next: I tried pymingw: didn't work :(
Any ideas?
Since the only official way to do this is pymingw, you should at least give feedback of the steps you followed, and what didn't work
