I am encountering errors with ctypes and geos. The same configuration (geos-3.0 or geos-3.2) runs fine under classical unixes like freebsd, mac or linux but do not pass with cygwin with 'free' function not found.
My configuration is 2.6.4 Release, and a little patch for ctypes which lets all
its test pass (loading cygpythonxx.dll instead of libpython.dll):
Testing package ctypes.test ('2.6.4 (r264:75706, Dec 6 2009, 16:44:34) \n[GCC
4.3.4 20090804 (release) 1]', 'cygwin', 'posix')

Ran 326 tests in 1.671s (0 modules skipped)
Unavailable resources: printing, refcount
Then, using it by hand with an helloword library makes no problem.
However, using it in my real world UseCase [1], make me think that there is a
problem with ctypes.
Indeed, geos is compiled and its huge test coverage pass.
But then, trying to use ctypes over geos do not work.
$ cat geos.py
from django.contrib.gis.tests import test_geos
test_geos.run()
