Am I missing something here? I have heard this before, but I have
built extension modules many times under windows (using Cython) and
never once used a MS product. I've just had to change a distutils
config file to use a different compiler (mingw32, directions here:
http://docs.cython.org/src/tutorial/appendix.html). It seems to work
fine. What is the basis of this claim that you need MS Visual Studio
to do it?
