Here goes patches for the integration: [1] http://people.freebsd.org/~perky/ctypesinteg-f1.diff.bz2 [2] http://people.freebsd.org/~perky/ctypesinteg-f2.diff.bz2 I implemented it in two flavors. [1] runs libffi's configure along with Python's and setup.py just builds it. And [2] has no change to Python's configure and setup.py runs libffi configure and builds it. And both patches don't have things for documentations yet. > (Of course, for due process, it would be better if this code gets > integrated into the official ctypes first, and then we incorporate > some named/versioned snapshot into /external, and svn cp it into > python/trunk from there). Thomas and I collaborated on integration into the ctypes repository and testing on various platforms yesterday. My patches for Python are derived from ctypes CVS with a change of only one line.
