[Distutils] distutils & Cygwin compiler on Win32

[Rene Liebscher (Rene.Liebscher@htw-dresden.de)]

Hi,

did anyone ever try to use the Cygwin compiler on Win32 
with distutils?

If not, then I'm the first.

You can find a compiler class for this purpose at

http://www.informatik.htw-dresden.de/~htw7192/distutils-cygwin/

there is also some additional information about some problem it still
has.

It is not completly tested, so if anyone want to test, use or
debug it, she is free to do so. (I used it to build some dll's,
the complete rest was not tested.)

(PS: It works probably with mingw32, too. I used cygwin in no-cygwin
mode,
which is same as mingw32, I think.)


Kind regards
