It is. I have Python 2.5 ... 3.2 from Python.org, with MinGW from
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/MinGW-5.0.3.exe?download and ATLAS
binaries from https://github.com/numpy/vendor.

Then I normally build numpy/scipy with "paver bdist_wininst_simple" or
"paver bdist_wininst_superpack". This also requires MakeNSIS and the CpuId
plugin for it, as documented at
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/master/doc/HOWTO_RELEASE.rst.txt
