It's not as easy as that, though. Older Python versions require a specific
MSVC option for building extension modules, so using a newer MS compiler is
not an option here. While MinGW *is* an option, I assume that MSVC is a lot
easier to set up on Windows, so it's not a simple click-and-forget option
but more of a try-to-make-it-work-if-you-really-want-to-use-it option,
especially when also compiling against other external libraries which users
may or may not build from sources.
