MS Visual C++ 6 is indeed the compiler that the python.org
distributions are built with, but MinGW works fine too. In fact, the
code generated by MinGW-GCC 3.4.4 outpaces that generated by MSVC++ 6.0
by a considerable margin in some of my performance-critical extensions,
and the size of the binari

Yes. That's exactly the compiler that Python 2.3 itself, and most 2.3
extensions, were built with.

Hello,
I have no Microsoft compilers on my hard disk. I recenly built a C API
Python extension for Python 2.3 on OS X, and now I need to build it for
Windows.
When I start Python 2.3 on Windows, it says it was built with "MS C
v.1200". I'm not sure how that maps to current Microsoft compiler
prod
