    Here's how I installed hg-git on Windows using the MinGW compiler.

    PREPARE
    -------

    - Install Python (http://www.activestate.com/activepython/downloads)
    - Install the Python package manager, setuptools (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools)
    - Install the C compiler, MinGW gcc (http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started)
    - Install the MinGW installer (http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Automated%20MinGW%20Installer/mingw-get/)
    - Install the C compiler, MinGW gcc, and a utility, pexports, to help create the import library

    > mingw-get install gcc
    > mingw-get install mingw-utils

    Create an import library for MinGW gcc

    > cd c:\python26\libs
    > pexports c:\windows\system32\python26.dll > python26.def
    > dlltool -C -d python26.def -l libpython26.a
    > nm libpython26.a # shows you the exported symbols with "I" (as import symbol)

    - Configure the package manager to use the new C compiler

    In C:\Python26\Lib\distutils, create distutils.cfg with this content:
