Erny,
This post is really more appropriate for one of the Python mailing lists
since it has much more to do with Python extensions than with PostgreSQL.

The above is true for all Python extensions. Ones built for Cygwin
Python will not work for Win32 Python and vice versa. The reason is
simple: Cygwin Python extensions import from libpython2.1.dll while
Win32 extensions import from python21.dll. Mixing and matching will
either cause the Python interpreter to fail loading the extension or
(at least in the past) cause the interpreter to crash.

The above is the easiest solution -- another (more difficult) one is to
use Microsoft Visual Studio.

Sorry, I can't help you with the above -- maybe someone on one of the
Python lists will know the answer.
