I have created a rule in SConstruct to build this import library for Python, 
which is required to build and run CsoundVST with MinGW on Windows.

The rule assumes that %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\python23.dll exists. The Python 
installer should have placed python23.dll there. If not you should copy it 
there.

The rule uses pexports and dlltool to build /usr/lib/libpython23.a.  Note 
that pexports may not be present in early versions of GNU binutils for 
MinGW. In that case you can update your binutils.

Alternatively, for the time being libpython23.a can be downloaded from the 
csound5 Attic directory in CVS.


At this point, the cygwin_import_libraries directory and its contents (the 
only one was libpython23.a) should be removed from Csound 5 CVS.
