I wonder if it would be better to have distutils generate the appropriate type of makefile and execute that instead of directly building objects and shared libraries. This would finesse some of the dependency tracking problems that pop up frequently.
It was one of the design principles of distutils to not rely on any other tools but Python and the C compiler. Regards, Martin
