No, it works if you drive it from gcc:

    $ gcc -I/usr/include/python2.4 -c hello.c
    $ gcc -shared -o hello.dll hello.o -L/usr/lib/python2.4/config -lpython2.4
    $ python hellouse.py 
    Hello, C
    Hello, module /tmp/examples/PP2E/Integrate/Extend/Hello/hello.dll
    Hello, 0
    Hello, 1
    Hello, 2

BTW, if you use Distutils, then it will just work...
