You may take a look at the stuff here:
ftp://starship.python.net/pub/crew/avv/DCOracle/dcoracle-mingw32-wrk.tar.gz,
and even use it if you like. It's a proof-of-existence port of the
DCOracle wrapper to mingw32 compiler, using the advices from
http://starship.python.net/crew/kernr/mingw32/Notes.html

It worked for me, once or so, and there was no need in more development,
so it's left as is. Because it was a while ago, I may not be able to
answer all the questions, which may arise about this port, but I shall
try ;-).
