Works for me. I suggest following the guidelines in PEP 399 for cross implementation compatibility of the standard library: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0399/#details 1. Keep stat.py 2. Make the C version "stat" 3. Add the following to the end of stat.py: try: from stat import * except ImportError: pass Run the tests with and without the C module in the test suite (again, as per PEP 399).
Agreed with the above.
But isn't the real problem with this module in Python the fact that the constants might be wrong? I'm not sure what, if anything, we can do about that.
