<shrug> It's worked fine for me using Enthon (which comes with mingw and g77, 
things you will need at minimum).

What versions of Enthon and f2py are you using?
What exactly did you try?
What errors are you seeing?
How are you trying to compile your modules, i.e. with just the f2py command or 
are you building a setup.py file?
Did you pass "--compiler=mingw --fcompiler=gnu" to your build command?
