It seems like that. I compiled with DevStudio 6, and the import works (at
least in the debug build, but thats the only one I checked). I recompiled
python unter cygwin using "--with-pydebug", but to the same effect: cygwins'
python.exe raises a segmentation fault. So maybe, just maybe, its a fault of
cygwin ?
