It is indeed quite different. The simplest way I know to build a Python
extension module on Windows is to take my "compile.py" program

   http://starship.python.net/crew/da/compile/

create a Setup file which has the two lines

*shared*
mymodule mymodule.c

and run compile.py on that file.  That will create files for Developer
Studio (the microsoft compiler) which are then easy to build.

Let me know if you have problems with it.
