Distutils won't use MinGW by default, as VS6 is the "native" compiler.

You use MinGW by specifying the compiler on the command line with the
"-compiler=mingw" option to the setup script - note that this is from
memory, but there is a page on www.python.org that contains more
information about using MinGW to build extensions.
