The only problem I had was with the use of certain .lib files (specifically
from a Microsoft compiler). All that was required was to use the reimp tool
on the lib files and recompile.

The reimp tool is now part of mingw-utils

Reimp:

MinGW Project page:

If you don't have a good reference for recompiling the python dll I found
this quite helpful:
