I gave it a try with cygwin-hosted mingw just to see
if that would work as an alternative to VS2008/VC9 to
figure out some linkage problems.

I tried:
  python setup.py build_ext --compiler mingw32

and got a version string issue noted below which
rejects the version string printed from the loader
ld as an inappropriate form.

I seem to recall that mingw was expected to work with 2.6.
Is it?

Thanks - Jim
