I noticed a while ago that omniorb needed Python to build their toolset.
Are you sure that you need a Python with threading or just the ability
to run Python scripts?  If the latter, then note that Python 2.1b2 builds
OOTB under Cygwin if you configure as follows:

    $ configure --with-threads=no

Sorry, but Cygwin Python's support of threads is not ready for prime
time.
