notes on compilation Python with MinGW gcc

[Oleg A. Paraschenko]

Hello all,

  recently I compiled Python with MinGW gcc under Windows.
If there are some interest, you can look at log of process at

http://uucode.com/texts/python-mingw/python-mingw.html

In short, about compiling with MinGW gcc:

* it is possible;
* result works;
* you must not do it unless you know for sure that you must do it;
* you must have a good knowledge of C and of debugging;
* in most cases all you need is to compile an extension module.
