Comment 8 for bug 499592

As for the Python.h include problem, that's pretty much where I'm currently stuck too. But I got a hint from dbozic (who posted a question about this topic about a year ago), and he pointed me to the following:

"Considering the compilation problem, I think I had to edit the makefile
and to change at various places a "\" into a "/" (e.g. instead of
c:\Python25\includes\ /c/Python25/includes/ or C:/Python25/includes/).
I know that this is [s]trange, but you have to be aware that mingw uses
unix syntax whereas python uses windows style...."

I haven't had time to try this out yet, but maybe you want to give it a shot.
