a clever enough compiler? ;-)

that reference was left in there by mistake; the ImagingCrack
function is called a static function which is not referenced from
anywhere else in the file, and both compilers used to test that
release (MSVC, Digital's cc) didn't generate any code for that
function.  gcc isn't that clever, though...

to fix this, grab 0.3a3 from http://www.pythonware.com
