That's funny, because the failing code does compare versions :-)

...
  File "c:\Python30\lib\distutils\cygwinccompiler.py", line 314, in __init__
    if self.gcc_version <= "2.91.57":
  File "c:\Python30\lib\distutils\version.py", line 64, in __le__
    c = self._cmp(other)
  File "c:\Python30\lib\distutils\version.py", line 341, in _cmp
    return cmp(self.version, other.version)
NameError: global name 'cmp' is not defined
