[Distutils] Compiling / Installing extensions

[Thomas Heller]

It seems, with Robins latest patch compiling extensions
under windows goes smoothly.

Some points are still nonstandard:

1. Usually extensions are named xxx.pyd, not xxx.dll
Should this be changed?

2. install copies all files built: not only the dll but also
.exp, .lib, everthing which is output by the linker.
Is this also the case on unix?
Or is my setup.py wrong?

3. It would really be nice if there were a possibility to
compile debug versions.
