Please attach your diff, rather than pasting it into the text box. The diff is hopelessly mangled, and cannot be applied for testing.

I do hope this patch is integrated. As it is, I'm going to have to tell my users to patch distutils by hand...

It seems that this bug has been fixed in Python 2.4. Using this Python version: '2.4 (#60, Nov 30 2004, 11:49:19) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)]' a C++ extension compiled correctly with mingw32. Could you check if the compilation error still occurs with Python 2.4? Compilation still fails with Python 2.3.5c1, but I doubt that this bug can be fixed before the final 2.3.5 release.

Apparently, shura_zam silently agrees that the problem was solved, rejecting the patch as outdated.
