I was trying to compile a python plugin (for gimp) using the MSYS shell and 
the MINGW compiler.

I now have put this in 'sitecustomize'
$ cat /c/Python24/lib/site-packages/sitecustomize.py
import sys
import os
import re
if os.environ.get("MSYSTEM") == "MINGW32":
        os.sep='/'
        os.pathsep='/'
        sys.prefix = re.sub('\\\\','/',sys.prefix)
        sys.exec_prefix = re.sub('\\\\','/',sys.exec_prefix)

It would probably be better to have python detect that it's running from 
inside the msys shell,
and output '/'es instead of '\'es.

maybe someone could extend os.path to do this in the standard distribution:
implement an msyspath.py, which calls ntpath for each function, and does a 
replace at the end of the evaluation. Unfortunately, I'm just starting to 
look into python, so I do not know what the cleanest implementation of this 
would be...
