OK, I'm willing to accept that statement. But I don't understand it, and I don't think you've explained why you *need* your CPython interpreter to be compiled with mingw (as opposed to a number of other things you might need around building extensions). You may well "need" a mingw-compiled CPython because no-one has yet fixed the issues around using mingw to build extensions for the python.org python build. But that's my point - I'd rather "they" fixed that issue, rather than perpetuating your need for a non-standard compiler that uses extensions no-one else can use.
