To build an extension that runs on a generic python 2.5 you need a
Windows OS (suprise!) and VS.NET 2003. Some people may have had some
success with MinGW32 (on windows) but it's not going to work
'out-of-the-box'.
If your code is straightforward crossplatform C, you could setup a
distutils configuration script and pass it off to someone else to build
the windows binaries, but chances are some debugging will have to be
done.
