The tar.gz is built on Linux; the .zip on Windows. So line endings are
different. eval wants the "right" line endings.

No. Cross-compiling is sort-of conceivable, but even if I went to all
that work, you'd still have to have a "workable" Windows Python 
installation on your Linux box, with no way of verifying that it
is "workable".
