__cdecl on windows

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Compile with VS 2008
2. Run example.py
3. Exception: ValueError: Procedure called with not enough arguments (12 bytes 
missing) or wrong calling convention

In makefile I see this line:
    CL= cl /MD /TC /nologo $(DBG) /Gz /W3 /DNO_SSL_DL
It has a /Gz flag that specifies __stdcall calling convention, and in 
mongoose.py the dll is imported with ctypes.CDLL so, I just removed the flag 
and default __cdecl worked as expected. 

Please, add _mongoose.dll in downloads list and remove /Gz flag. Thank you!

There was an issue http://code.google.com/p/mongoose/issues/detail?id=81
Apparently, stdcall library is a better choice than cdecl one.
Maybe python code should use windll instead?
