Make Cython fully support closures, then we can easily implement our own 
"OpenMP" using Python threads. No change to the compiler is needed. You 
might not realise this at first, but OpenMP is just a way of 
implementing closures in C. Sematically the parallel blocks are just 
closures executed by multiple threads.
