socket module not built when cross compiling with mingw #200

Compiling with latest mingw-w64 (GCC 7.2.0) from archlinux, the build runs but the socket module is not built: when imported from the interpreter it gives this error:

>>> import socket
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "Z:\home\woggioni\build\python-cmake-buildsystem\build\Lib\socket.py", line 47, in <module>
    import _socket
ImportError: No module named _socket

I managed to enable the socket module setting BUILTIN_SOCKET=ON in cmake cache (and had to patch the name of mstcpip.h header to all lowercase in python sources), but stil I do not understand why this is not enbled by default, as it is when making a native build
I'm now having troubles with the ssl module, but it doesn't seem to something related to the build system
