[issue4709] Mingw-w64 and python on windows x64

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower added the comment:

We are working on the Fortran issue in a few different ways, one of which is your work on MinGW compatibility so that gfortran can be used. But that isn't the only solution to this whole problem, and it's not even preferable for a lot of Python users, so expect other proposals to come out.

I'm not aware of any C99 limitations still present in VC14, so please let me know so I can file bugs against the team.
