I was bitten by the lack of Cygwin support in 3.2 as well.

IMO,  python-dev needs continuous integration on a build farm that includes
representative platforms.  Most of the machines in the farm could be
virtualboxes.

I don't think the problem is so much that the right people haven't gotten
involved, as that the currently-involved people don't know when they're
breaking something for someone else due to the lack of continuous
integration.
