I've checked the windows build support into CVS now.

I had also started on a distutils based setup.py script once. Now I've
dusted it off brought a bit up to date to make it work again on my
system and checked into CVS as dsetup.py. We should try to merge both
distutils setups and replace the old non-distutils setup.py. 

Any takers?

FWIW, if I had time to do it myself, I'd probably do it similar to
Thuban's setup.py:
