[pypy-dev] Tkinter-pypy not building on windows

[Arnaud F]

The reference to X11.lib comes from the original setup.py. The reference to
python27.lib seems to come from distutils (build_ext.py, in the
get_libraries method)
I didn't find any .lib file in my pypy installation (the standard binaries
version 1.7 32bits for windows), just some dlls.
Do I need to rebuild pypy from source ?

Thanks,
Arnaud
