[Numpy-discussion] building numpy trunk on WindowsXP

[josef.pktd at gmail.com]

I just tried to build numpy for the first time, on Windows XP SP2,
sse2, single CPU with MingW 3.45, Python25

I used `setup.py bdist` and copied extracted archive into
sitepackages, (so I can delete it again)

Are the errors and failures below expected, or did my build not work correctly?
