What list of symbols-to-export? That is, are you talking about some specific file under CVS, and if so which one(s)?

No, I was talking about the list (or set, if you wish) of symbols exported from pythonxy.dll (on OS/2, there actually is a list, PC/os2vcapp/python.def). Mark was asking whether some _PyCore* symbol should have been exported, which would go away under Neil's patch. In turn, additional symbols might need to get exported; I'm not sure whether the necessary incantation is also in Neil's patch - if that is in, each of its symbols need to be reconsidered for export.
