[issue14387] Include\accu.h incompatible with Windows.h

[Jeff Robbins]

Stefan asked

'Did you include Python.h before or after Windows.h? Extensions
are supposed to include Python.h before anything else. '

I downloaded http://code.google.com/p/apsw/ to test it out on the latest sqlite release.  I followed the build instructions on its website and discovered this problem.  

While the code isn't mine, inspecting apsw.c, the main source file, I can see that the sqlite "amalgamation" is included BEFORE Python.h.  It is this "amalgamation" that, in turn, includes Windows.h.

Should I contact the extension's author(s)/maintainer(s) and tell them about this ordering requirement?
