Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:

The CRT isn't a simple DLL anymore, and MinGW isn't a fully supported compiler 
either. You're going to be best to work with the people behind mingwpy to get 
it working, as there really isn't anything we can do on our end (though I do 
what I can to help them out, short of committing code).

As I understand it, work on mingwpy has basically stopped right now for a 
variety of reasons, and most projects have found ways to work with MSVC. 

I'm going to close this bug as external. When there is something for us to 
change in core, then we can consider it. (About the only thing worth doing 
right now is fully removing the mingw support to avoid confusion, but there's 
no value in that so why bother.)
