Thanks for the offer, but to be honest, I would be *much more*
interested in people using these platforms helping out with testing /
debugging / development.  I won't *use* ctypes on platforms other than
windows in the foreseeable future.

(There is a FreeBSD platform on the SF compilefarm, but 'configure'
fails with 'C compiler cannot create executables).
