[Python-Dev] Python with MinGW-2.0?

[David Abrahams]

Sorry if this is only mildly on-topic. If anyone here has successfully used
MinGW-2.0 to build an extension module, please contact me.

I'd really like to support this platform for the upcoming Boost.Python
release, but it appears that MinGW-2.0 is unable to link to imported data
(e.g. PyType_Type) from a stock Win32 import library such as the one that
comes with the regular Windows install of Python.

TIA,
Dave
