[texworks] where does python27.dll come from?

Hi,

Current stable release (0.4.1) fails on systems without MSVC
Redistributable installed:

This is due to python27.dll being build with MS toolchain rather than
mingw like the rest of TW.  Is this intentional?  For TeX Live it
would be much preferable to stick to mingw for the whole thing.

Cheers,

Tomek
