That way, there is no further infrastructure to include. On the other hand, as Darren suggested later, one can do what setuptools' build_ext command does without setuptools (if an extension source ends in .pyx, call pyrexc on it. If pyrexc is not available, skip that step. In both cases, then compile the .c file with the c compiler.) Darren, if you're still having trouble with this, I can dig up the old code I had that did this (I switched to setuptools for this, and other stuff, a long time ago).
