Can not build trunk on windows

Hi

I get the following error when I try to build matplotlib on a windows machine. It builds fine if I comment out the offending line in setup.py.

C:\python\external\matplotlib-trunk>python setup.py config --compiler=mingw32 build --compiler=mingw32 bdist
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "setup.py", line 13, in <module>
     del os.link
AttributeError: link

Thanks -- I'll fix it. This is a hack to prevent distutils from
copying our symlinks, which is breaking easy_install.
