All the examples I found via google have the tool name as "mingw32"
so try:
python setup.py install -c mingw32
or
python setup.py build --compiler=mingw32 install
The compiler that the MinGW package installs is gcc.
You shoulf be able to verify it is on your path by typing:
gcc --help
or
gcc --version
and see some output.
