The problem I had with this was that you had code like

typedef struct _frame PyFrameObject;

... stuff ...
 
typedef struct _frame {
    ... stuff ...
} PyFrameObject;

which egcs didn't like; I changed it to 

typedef struct _frame PyFrameObject;

... stuff ...
 
struct _frame {
    ... stuff ...
};

and everything went smoothly.
