And another problem that should be taken in account is that MS Visual
Studio does not offer OpenMP in the Express edition (the free, as in
beer, one).
Which is why one should get the Windows 7 SDK instead :-)
As I see this, if we could stick using just Python threads, that would
be our best bet for having a good adoption of future Cython parallel
capabilities.
Yes, if they are there, we have threads. If they are not, we don't.
We don't need to assume anything about the platform, libraries, etc.
It's all taken care of by Python.
In the case that we need dealing with a low-level C-API
thread library, I'd use pthreads, with a possible light wrapper for
using it from the Windows thread API on Windows machines.
pthreads are available on Windows as well.
