Ok, I looked at the help but missed the line --help-compiler which gave the
list of compilers. I have now tried --compiler=mingw32 as suggested and that
works quite well. The documentation inside the code doesn't mention anything
about compilers except unix and msvc either -- or at least the part I looked
at.... :-) In any case, thanks for your help!

Did you ever try "python setup.py build --compiler=mingw32"
with your package?

Mingw32 and cygwin are supported for more than a half year now.

(Ok, we should have updated the documentation, but to use
help with the build command isn't a problem?)  

Kind regards
