[pypy-dev] Windows Testing

[Michael Schneider]

I think the python version of libffi is a good starting point for windows.  It seems to be one of the few versions with windows support.

When you are successful, let me know, and I can copy .lib .dll and headers up to the windows build slave.

Good luck, and keep us posted,

Thanks again,
Mike
