[issue12641] Remove -mno-cygwin from distutils

[Lewis Levin]

Lewis Levin added the comment:

This is broken for Python 2.7.4.  Is it fixed in 2.7.6?  gcc deprecated -mno-cygwin.  It's not there any more.  There shouldn't be a discussion.  This is an incredibly poor example of how fragmentation and poor process result in poor quality open source software--in the corners, even when the overall code is excellent.  Over 2 years on something this trivial.  Hundreds of lines of discussion.  There wasn't really any reason for this to have persisted.
