What I'm reading is saying that Mingw64 (i.e. Cygwin without the Cygwin 
DLL) isn't a good option (yet).

http://wiki.cython.org/64BitCythonExtensionsOnWindows

The Python 2.6 win32 releases were all Mingw32 compiles, as that let me 
use Mingw32 for 2.6 and VC++ Express for the 2.7 version.  I'll likely 
go with the SDK approach for the 2.7 releases on 64-bit, not sure what 
I'll do for the 64-bit 2.6 compiles yet.  If this wasn't a 
pay-per-install OS I'd just set up a VM branch for the 2.6 release, but 
I only have the one (real) machine with a Win64 license.

Enjoy,
Mike
