This may not be necessary if we can get a Windows box, but I thought I'd mention it.
I wrote a distutils extension a couple of years ago to build Windows installers on a Linux box with Mingw32. This has been working perfectly for nightly builds on my home machine since around September 2007 for a project with much the same build requirements as matplotlib. It's really easy to install Mingw32 on Debian derivatives (maybe other dists as well.)
