No. cysignals is complicated, but it doesn't need dynamic linking to Python modules (.so files). It does need "internal" linking: it needs to link a non-Cython-generated .c file together with a Cython-generated .c file into one Python module. It uses "cdef public" for that, so it would run in exactly the problem that this thread is about.

So I personally would not mind if Cython would completely drop support for exporting symbols from C extensions (which, AFAIK, doesn't work on OS X anyway).
