[issue8384] Distutils C extension build with MinGW on Windows fails

[Craig McQueen]

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

I just realised--I didn't have c:\mingw\bin in my path. Once I added that to the path, then the build worked fine.

So I guess the issue is only that the error message is somewhat cryptic.
