Unfortunately I haven't had the bandwidth to vigorously pursue completing integration of my previously submitted patches, and at this time don't expect to be able to do much until about the time 2.2b2 is scheduled to hit the streets :-(. So I don't expect that 2.2 will have OS/2+EMX build support in the sourceball...

At this stage, my plan is to finalise a binary release of 2.2 before submitting a new set of patches, taking into account Martin von Loewis' comments and suggestions (much appreciated thank you!) among others. I also plan to try and coordinate my patches with those of Michael Muller (473749, 474169 & 474500 so far) for the VAC++ build of Python for OS/2.

I will try and review Michael's patches with a view to getting them into 2.2, as the VAC++ build has been part of the sourceball for a few versions.
