Using alternative compiler on windows

I would like to see the ability to use alternative compilers on windows, other than msvc. for example using llvm-mingw as a compiler.

a temporary workaround seems to be comment out the check https://github.com/pypa/distutils/blob/49e362ce78427d51b104664d246296f7546176a1/distutils/ccompiler.py#L1086 and it compiles with mingw
