seems to me is because the intptr_t is defined in both crfsuite/win32/stdint.h and mingw\include\io.h. https://github.com/tpeng/python-crfsuite/blob/master/setup.py#L25 is the place to add the crfsuite header file on Windows, but since you're compiling with mingw maybe you can try without it.

Thanks for your reply. As far as I know, I need to have mingw to compile the code correctly. Indeed, I tried mingw since i wan unable to install it from anaconda tool in windows.

@akbarimohammad Compilation did work using the Visual Studio 2013 Compiler.

Will be superseded by #29

@fgregg do you think it should be closed now?

[fgregg]

I think so.
