No, sigh, not in the current Python architecture for Windows.

Distributing with sources (checking said sources build correctly
with freely distributed compilers such as BCC) is one possibility,
but many Windows developers aren't happy to rebuild from sources
anyway (even if the C compiler is free they still have to download
and install it...).

So, I have no "silver bullet" to suggest to you at this time...:-(
