<h3><a name="cygwin">Notes for Cygwin GCC Users</a></h3>
<p>If you are using Cygwin GCC to build extension modules, you
must use a Cygwin build of Python. The regular Win32 Python
installation that you can download from <a
href="http://www.python.org">python.org</a> will not work with
your compiler because the dynamic linking conventions are
different (you can use <a href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a>
GCC if you want to build extension modules which are compatible
with a stock Win32 Python). The Cygwin installer may be able to
install an appropriate version of Python, or you can follow the
traditional <a
href="http://www.python.org/download/download_source.html">Unix
installation process</a> to build Python from source.

<p>The special build configuration variables listed above as
&quot;Cygwin only&quot; make it possible to use a regular Win32
build of bjam to build and test Boost.Python and Boost.Python
extensions using Cygwin GCC and targeting a Cygwin build of Python.
