Dear Cython developers,
as part of a big effort to make SageMath less monolithic and make it
part of a larger ecosystem, we are splitting off certain modules from
SageMath as separate packages. cysignals was an early example of this.
Given that we use Cython a lot, it is really important for us that
inter-package C and Cython interfaces work well. One blocking issue is
https://github.com/cython/cython/pull/1654
That PR improves the way how "cdef extern from" files are found: it will
automatically add a disutils include_dirs argument to the Extension if
it's needed to find to extern file. It is needed whenever you have a
package which installs .pxd and .h files in site-packages.
Cheers,
Jeroen.
