Welll the easiest thing to do is to see if import _continuation fails. And if it does fail, try to import
greenlets. Also keep the old greenlet code. This is very much the way the previous stackless.py
worked.

I would be happy to work with other folks that are interested in the stackless.py module. I have a
patchy knowledge of PyPy but a decent knowledge of stackless.py and stackless. Let me study continuations and the existing stackless.py module. In
this fashion, I can make every hint I ask count.

As discussed on IRC, I think an approach that would work is fork stackless.py in two. One branch would be conventional. That that, it would track C basedStackless but incorporate stuff like continuelets and bug fixes and more conservative features.
The other branch would be experimental. Wilder stuff would be done there.
Cheers,
Andrew
