The 32-bit installer should include libpython27.a, the import library in GNU ld format. To build it, cygwin must be installed and on PATH when the MSI is built. The file will end up in libs/libpython27.a

Thanks for catching this. Do I need a specific version of Cygwin or will the latest version suffice?

I think any version should do.

I installed mingw32-binutils and it seems to work fine. 2.7.7 will have the file again.
