Python Import from .pyd doesn't work

[Anurag Chourasia]

Dear Cygwin Developers,

Is it possible under Cygwin Python to import modules from a .pyd
(extended DOS executable (.EXE)  -- Win32 or NT Portable format).
Please help.

My attempts to build wxPython under Cygwin have failed and hence I was
trying to use the Windows installation of wxPython by setting the
syspath under Cygwin. Here is the session transcript.
