I do it for the two I'm maintaining/developing on my own -- 'pynfo' and 'originalgamer' on sourceforge.net (the former of which I just did the initial release for a couple days ago). Twisted (http://www.twistedmatrix.com), which doesn't currently build bdist_wininst packages on Linux, would definitely like to once there's a viable cross-compilation solution for the handful of .c files it includes. The current process for building the windows installer involves vmware, and is generally a pain. I'm assuming native compiled modules wouldn't pose any additional problems for bdist_wininst, since they can just be wrapped up like any other file, and plopped down onto the target system, and anyway, building bdist_wininst on windows must already take care of it, right?
