This bug is still present in Python 2.7.5 on Windows 64-bit . I am currently
providing the following instructions for MinGW-w64 users wanting to link to
Python27.dll:

Martin, Ralf is right and my as previously linked is about building a python
extension. I should have been more explicit about that.
FWIW I found that the configure scripts on MinGW-w64 generally work fine if you
add a "--build=x86_64-w64-mingw32" argum

Hi Martin
I have documented a build process for a Python package on MinGW-w64, including
a requirement that this patch be applied. You might want to revisit it, given
that your attempt to reproduce this bug earlier was unsuccessful.
