Windows CE prevents assignment to errno...

There would be a solution if you compiled all the code as C++. (Assuming that C++ reserved words are not used in the python code.)

Oh that's the other problem I ran into.

The core .c has a lot of

goto finally;

finally:

In C mode, this shouldn't matter. But MS's EVT compiler considers "finally" to be a reserved word. I had to change all of these too. (I used local_finally or some such thing)
