[issue1544339] _ctypes fails to build on Solaris x86 32-bit (Sun compiler)

[Nick]

Nick <nick_bower at fastmail.fm> added the comment:

Martin, the patch is for libffi included in ctypes 1.0.2.  This is python 2.4 (required for plone/zope) so python 2.5/2.6 etc is not a possibility.

ctypes 1.0.2 compiles with this patch but then core dumps anyway during tests so false hope.

It appears to me that no-one is maintaining this separate ctypes code-base anymore so I'll have to ditch dependencies that use it (Shapely) unfortunately.
