python on cygwin

[eric]

Thanks Jason,

I'll look this over and try to get it running.  Is this something that needs to
be fixed in the python disribution, or something that needs to be fixed in
cygwin?  Any prospect of this eventually working out of the box, or is this
something that will always need tweaking?

thanks,
eric
