> Since my last pull (revision 1772), "python setup.py config" fails on my mingw32 system with an AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'extend' (see Traceback below). This seems to result from a modification in a recent revision because revision 1770 was building fine with the same configuration, specifically:
