I put a more detailed explanation of the problem with an example + a patch on the bug tracker: http://bugs.python.org/issue4709 This is the only problem on python side of things to make extensions buildable on windows x64 (all the other problems I have encountered so far to make numpy build with mingw-w64 are numpy's or mingw-w64).
