CDDB and DiscID for Python


I am trying to install CDDB and DiscID so that I can import them into
Python.  Following the directions for win32, I put CDDB.py, DiscID.py,
win32/cdrom.py, and win32/mci.dll in /lib/python2.4/site-packages. 
import CDDB works fine, but import DiscID produces the error

ImportError: dlopen, Win21error 1157

It is produced by the import mci command in cdrom.py.  I also tried to
install using python setup-win32.py install, but that command produced
the error message

undefined reference to '_mciSendStringA@16'

I also tried the unix installation procedure (python setup.py install). 
It started complaining with

storage size of 'hdr' isn't known

The long list of complaints looks like they result from a missing
include file, but there is no complaint about such a problem.

These modules work fine on my linux platform.  Does anyone know how to
get them to work under cygwin?
