In a half hour last night, I was able to cross compile python for windows, on 
linux, using
mingw32.

Just get source to tag v2.7.1 python using hg,  then apply David's cmake patch.

Build a simple CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE for your linux mingw toolset, and it built 
just fine.

CMake, Linux, Mingw, cross-compiling, and money are my answer to any problems 
in this topic.

Since they don't exist in sufficient quantity, I am now dropping out of this 
topic.

The talk about using microsoft tools getting pulled back into the project are 
too painful
to even participate in.
