There is code for spinlocks, but it allocates the lockword in the process memory. This can be used for thread synchronization, but not for IPC with external python or non-python processes. I found a PyIPC IPC package that seems to provide interface to Sys V shared memory and semaphore - but I just found it, so cannot comment on it at this time. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
