But its actually trying to do more than what he's asking. This patch is 
to *cross*-compile python with mingw, compiling it with mingw under 
windows should be easier.

There was an email to python-list saying it was possible here:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2004-June/225967.html

But unfortunately few details were provided. I've emailed the author to 
ask him for them
