Comment (by dhendriks):

 Replying to [comment:8 cdavid]:
 > A fix was applied to the trunk a few weeks ago. I've just backported it
 to 1.1.x branch. Could you try it (revision >= r5811).

 Generating the .so file works. The generated file also seems to work. I'm
 closing the ticket.

 > Why do you need python 2.3 and cannot upgrade 2.4, BTW ?

 It's my work PC at the university where I work. We have Fedora 3 with GCC
 3 and Python 2.3. That's what is used. I could upgrade, but I still can't
 use Python 2.4 features, as that would not work for those users that use
 Python 2.3. The tooling we develop is also used on older machines that
 don't have Python 2.4...
