[issue18397] Python with MinGW

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

I believe there are open (and some closed) issues in this tracker related to mingw support, though many of them are for support for compiling extensions using mingw, which is actually a harder problem.  They will probably provide clues if nothing else.  What we probably lack is a core developer with the time and desire to review and commit the patches.  If I remember correctly someone started trying to sort the proposals into small enough patches to make review practical.  With another pair of eyes doing review, testing, and sorting, the chances of making progress would be increased.
