Sorry Phil, where is that installed?  How do I start it?  Are you now
suggesting I use some shell provided by MinGW?   I'm really not
attached to any particular shell or way of doing it.  In fact,
anything to get me this build done with asap, I will do.  If you can
provide the details I would appreciate, because I'm just wasting time
dabbling away right now.

It would be VERY useful if detailed instructions on exactly what you
do to build PyQt were provided on a wiki/website, etc..  I mean, all
details, commands typed, etc.  "Building PyQt for dummies", how about
that?

Thanks.
