about presicion

[Anthony Baxter]

Another approach is to find someone with the appropriate toolchain
(VS7.1) and get them to do:

% python setup.py install
% python setup.py bdist_wininst

and then make the windows installer for the gmpy module available.

My understanding is that building 2.4 modules with either mingw or the
freely available MS compiler is still a non-trivial exercise - but
there's enough people interested in this that I suspect it will be
resolved soon enough.
