The free C/C++ compiler in Windows SDK supports OpenMP. This is the system C compiler on Windows.

Visual C++ Express is an IDE for beginners and hobbyists.

OpenMP on GCC is the same on Windows as on any other platform.

I'm strongly for implementing thin and low-level support for OpenMP
at the first place instead of (ab?)using it to implement high-level
threading API.

My opinion on this continues to be -1. I'm afraid that difficult access to OpenMP on Windows platforms (lack of OpenMP in MSVC Express is, as I
see it, a major showstopper, although perhaps GCC 4.x on Win is stable
enough already, I don't know) would prevent of *true* portability of
OpenMP-powered Cython programs.

IMHO, going to the native Python threads + possibly new Cython syntax is
a better venue.  But I'd like to be proved that the problem for Win is
not that grave...
