Hi Jonathan,
I've no experience with py2exe, but I'm not surprised that the
declarations are causing you problems. A better way might be to write
a function, that when passed _lgeos, does the prototyping. We'd then
call that function instead of eval'ing ctypes_declarations.py. Is a
working patch along these lines something you might be interested in
contributing? If so, I'd be happy to push for a Shapely 1.0.13 release.
Cheers,
Sean
