this proves one thing: python's extension depends on python's version
heavily, with which we compile the pyd. if we build a extension for py
2.5.1, it runs on py 2.5.2, but gives the above warning. However, it
does not run on py 2.4/2.6

so here comes ctypes module. By using ctypes, we can write a moulde in
pure python language to call the functions in a *pure* dll/so. this
module can run in py 2.4/2.5/2.6 without modifications.

But, above of all, we must compile a C lib into *pure* dll/so.
I have contributed the python interface to haru, ming and other libs,
for all of them can be compiled into a pure dll.

I did not find a pure gfx.dll in swftools, I know little about C, and
I cannot compile swftools on windows with my devcpp. So I have to wait
to see if someone can build a swf.dll, or point out that it is a
mission impossible at all.
