If I understand correctly what Pyrex is, it is a tool that generates C
code that then needs to be compiled with gcc. At least that's what I
understand from http://ldots.org/pyrex-guide/2-compiling.html.

Therefore, I am wondering how useful it is to support the installation
of python-pyrex to the target, while we don't have the support for
providing a compiler on the target.

Is there something I have missed about Pyrex?

Thanks,

Thomas
