Just FYI I tried some openmp code with gcc 4.2 and found that I
couldn't load the module dynamically.  Here's a similar report:

This was using SWIG, but I think you'd encounter the same problem with
ctypes or weave.  It's a known bug that should be fixed in a future
release.

I wouldn't think that ICC or the MS compiler would exhibit this problem.
