Not really -- I was trying to get rid of WIN32 #ifdefs. My solution was
to attempt to reuse the DL_EXPORT macro. Now I realize that I should
have done the following instead:
#if defined(WIN32) || defined(__CYGWIN__)
__declspec(dllexport)
#endif

Apparently not.

I thought so too.

I have posted to the Cygwin mailing list and C.L.P regarding my original
2.0 patches. I have also continue to post to Cygwin regarding 2.1a1 and
2.1a2. I intended to do likewise for 2.1b1, etc.

Agreed -- the above was only offered to the curious Python-Dev person
and not for archival purposes.

I will submit a patch to README to add a Cygwin section to "Platform
specific notes". Unfortunately, I don't think that I can squeeze it in
by 2.1b1. If not, then I will submit it for the next release (2.1b2 or 2.1
final). I also don't mind waiting for the Cygwin gcc stuff to settle
down too. I know...excuses, excuses...
Thanks,
Jason
