[issue6672] Add Mingw recognition to pyport.h to allow building extensions

[Jan Schlüter]

Hello!

Thanks, you're right. I have created a patch against the latest SVN 
revision (75557) of branches/release26-maint/Include/pyport.h. The 
patch also applies fine to trunk/Include/pyport.h.
As it applies to both versions, I have created the patch directly from 
inside the Include directory rather than from the svn root.

As I am abroad for a couple of months and do not have access to my 
Windows machine, I currently cannot test the patch (i.e. compile Python 
on Windows using Mingw), but I successfully compiled the PyMedia 
package using Mingw and the modified pyport.h.

Please let me know if you have any questions or remarks!
