[omniORB] running omniidlrun.py on windows

I'm interested in running the full python version of onmiidl (front- and
back-ends) on windows, so I can run it under the python debugger. (This
helps me understand a new project.) In the win32 distribution of
omniORB-4.1.3, I'm seeing
<top>/src/tool/omniidl/python/scripts/omniidlrun.py, which appears to be the
entry point for the full python version of omniidl. This fails to import
_omniidl, ("Could not open IDL compiler module _omniidlmodule.so") which I
am assuming is a library for the front-end.

If I build omniORB from source using Cygwin or MSVC, will I get this
required _omniidl module library so I can then successfully run
omniidlrun.py, or am I barking up the wrong tree and omniidlrun.py is only
expected to work on Linux?
