I just ran across this bug in Python 3.5.1 while trying to build pycrypto using
MinGW. I patched the cygwincompiler.py with the attached patch.diff file, and
that got me part of the way there.
With the additions made by patch.diff, the MinGW linker then looked for
vcruntime140.dll but it could not find it.
With the Python 3.5.1 installation, vcruntime140.dll is located in
./Python35-32 directory, but it is not included in the library directories
being passed into MinGW.
To fix this, I had to edit ./Lib/distutils/command/build_ext.py and add to line
141:
self.library_dirs.append(os.path.join(sys.exec_prefix))
This adds the root of the Python35-32 directory to the library paths used by
MinGW.
