ctypes includes libffi. libffi is build with GNU tools, which would have to be committed in the python svn repository. Several of these files are licensed under GPL: aclocal.m4 config-ml.in config.guess config.sub depcomp ltcf-c.sh ltconfig missing AFAICT, these files are only used to *build* libffi, and are not linked into or have to be distributed with the binaries. Is it a problem to have these files in the Python source code? Maybe it would be possible to reimplement the functionality in the setup.py script, but this is way beyond my expertise.
