Then I'm a happy user of it so far, compiling almost only statsmodels with it.

I saw that the directory name changed from `mingw32` to `mingwpy`
between WinPython-64bit-3.4.3.1 and WinPython-64bit-3.4.3.6

I never looked at the details because it "just works" for me.
(On my old notebook it "just worked" with older MingW from python-xy
and 32bit Pythons.)

Thanks,
I'm happy when someone does the work and I don't have to worry about
it, and as long as there are no hidden traps that I should pay
attention to.

Josef
