4612	build Twisted on 64-bit Windows with mingw	carsonmyers		"Like the title says, I'm having trouble buidling twisted 10.1. Previously I just used the windows installer but there isn't a python 2.7 installer as of now. 

Firstly, I get these messages:

{{{
C:\MinGW\bin\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O -Wall -IC:\Python27\include -IC:\Python27\PC -c conftest.c -o conftest.o
conftest.c:1:21: rpc/rpc.h: No such file or directory
C:\MinGW\bin\gcc.exe -mno-cygwin -mdll -O -Wall -IC:\Python
27\include -IC:\Python27\PC -c conftest.c -o conftest.o
conftest.c:1:23: sys/epoll.h: No such file or directory
}}}

From what I have gathered from looking around, conftest failures don't fail the whole build, which they didn't. Are they important in any way though?

I then got all of this, which did fail the build:

It seems it can't find references to python components? I have both py26 and py27 installed on my machine, don't know if that makes a difference. "	defect	closed	normal	Python-2.7	core	fixed	build, win32, win64	davidsarah techtonik@… zooko@… thijs
