We have a C library (http://libvirt.org/) which has Python bindings. Because the library relies on a lot of POSIX stuff we have only got so far as to compile it under Cygwin. Using the Cygwin version of Python I can import the library fine.
Now for various reasons[*] I want to take the library (cygvirt.dll) and Python bindings (cygvirtmod.dll) and load them into the native Win32 python. I discovered from the FAQ that cygvirtmod.dll had to be renamed to cygvirtmod.pyd. However when Win32 python tries to 'import cygvirtmod' it just hangs (no CPU, but cannot be killed with ^C). There is no error message.
Is this something that just fundamentally cannot be done, or is there something I can do to fix this?
Rich.[*] 'Various reasons' being I want to use PyGTK without requiring an X server.
