Well, it looks like I underestimated the consequences of making io.py depend on the threading module. Is it ok if I add itertools, operator, _collections and time to the list of statically compiled modules? They are needed by threading, and thus necessary for running setup.py on a blank checkout.
Couldn't you use "from _thread import allocate_lock as Lock" instead? I know, I know, never use a private module directly. But the io module is crucial to the interpreter startup. Do we really want to load four additional C modules and one Python module at *every* startup?
