(This is a running commentary as I work on this. I may answer my own questions during this email):
I got it to detect and load headers correctly, and I'm getting this now: gcc -g -O2 -I./../include -I.. -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c -o thread.o thread.c In file included from thread.c:154: thread_cthread.h: In function `PyThread_acquire_lock': thread_cthread.h:154: warning: dereferencing `void *' pointer thread_cthread.h:154: request for member `held' in something not a structure or union thread_cthread.h:157: warning: dereferencing `void *' pointer thread_cthread.h:157: request for member `held' in something not a structure or union make[2]: *** [thread.o] Error 1 Line 154 (Because I added a couple lines at the top) is: mutex_lock(lock) Line 157: success = mutex_try_lock(lock); Include/pythread.h appears to define PyThread_type_lock as: typedef void *PyThread_type_lock; Hmm - There don't appear to be casts to (mutex_t). Does this actually work on other cthreads implementations, or is it deadwood? Lunch time. More after.
