If it complains that you don't have Python 2.2, then you should have 
installed 2.2 instead of 2.3.  Python 2.3 is not Python 2.2.

You say you have cygwin.  You can get a version of GCC for cygwin.

Cygwin has RPM support?  Cool.  If Pyprotocols as a src RPM and Cygwin 
has RPM support, get the source distribution and try to go from there.
