Yes, but that's a bit different I believe: you want cython to output C
code which is "visual studio compliant", but you don't need visual
studio to build cython or even output compatible C code. Wine does not
help you for the first part (at least as long as VS does not work on
wine), but is very helpful for the second part.

Numpy random is generated from cython now instead of pyrex - that's
how we discovered a few "bugs" in cython related to MS compilers
compliance.
