Last time I tried with mingw it worked (I've since departed the Windows world). I think official numpy binaries for Windows are built with mingw (Christoph uses MSVC though).
That may well be the case, but MSVC (Express or full) is the "standard" for building extensions - it's reasonable to expect that that is what the "casual user" we're talking about here would have (anyone who has taken the time to set up mingw for builds can be assumed to be "experienced" to some level or other...)
