Yes, I was thinking of setting up a cross-compiling system, but why would you use mingw instead of just gcc on Linux? ...because we cross-compile for Windows under linux.

Yes, I was thinking of setting up a cross-compiling system, but why would you use mingw instead of just gcc on Linux? Only cross-compiling I've ever done is on RISC OS. I use VMWare to accomplish a similar goal though, compiling stuff for old 64Mb P233's running RedHat7 is a lot faster when done on a 1Gb/2.5GHz VMWare machine! I just finished compiling Qt/PyQt/QScintilla/SIP for Python 2.4 using MinGW on Windows, and can say that MSVC6 was at least twice as fast, and required less patching to get it working, plus it's one less DLL and the binaries are about 20% smaller. I also can't seem to get PyQt apps working on Win98SE when using the MinGW build (2000 and XP work fine). Maybe I'll fork out the 100usd for Visual Studio .NET 2003 after all -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
