Hello!

I think, the ``setup.py install`` installation should exit without 
errors, even if I don´t have a C compiler installed. The C compiler is 
(I think) only needed for the optimized "_namemapper.pyd".

Many people don´t really need an optimized "_namemapper.pyd" on Windows. 
They need a functioning Cheetah to develop there applications.

I feel it as as step back, if ``setup.py install`` implicitly needs a C 
compiler to run without errors.
