[issue2698] Extension module build fails for MinGW: missing vcvarsall.bat

Craig McQueen <python at craig.mcqueen.id.au> added the comment:

And, I should add, doing nearly the same thing, except with Python 2.6.4, works fine. Same machine, same console window, same path:

    \python26\python.exe setup.py build --compiler=mingw32 --verbose

running build
running build_py
running build_ext
building 'cobs._cobsext' extension
c:\MinGW\bin\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O -Wall -IC:\Python26\include -IC:\Pytho
n26\PC -c src/_cobsext2.c -o build\temp.win32-2.6\Release\src\_cobsext2.o
writing build\temp.win32-2.6\Release\src\_cobsext.def
c:\MinGW\bin\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -shared -s build\temp.win32-2.6\Release\src\_co
bsext2.o build\temp.win32-2.6\Release\src\_cobsext.def -LC:\Python26\libs -LC:\P
ython26\PCbuild -lpython26 -lmsvcr90 -o build\lib.win32-2.6\cobs\_cobsext.pyd
