New submission from dholth <dho...@fastmail.fm>:

It might be useful to be able to declare optional Extensions that for example 
won't attempt to compile on Jython or any implementation of Python for which 
the extension (a) doesn't work or (b) would be slower than the Python fallback.

I suppose this could be accomplished without changing anything by packaging the 
extension separately and using the extant "; plat=win32" style dependency 
qualifiers?
