Well, here you have... a full tarball package (generated with "python
setup.py sdist") with the minimum required package metadata for the
sake of PyPI upload... the build.sh script install it in $PWD/tmp,
next run the test.sh script, it just adjusts $PYTHONPATH and runs
example.py

I hope you can make a useful contribution to Cython's Wiki after this ;-)
