Compiling kjBuckets for Win32 & Python20

Some Linux users asked me to compile kjBuckets for them on Win32.
I've run into the following problems. Any help is appreciated.
I got version 2.2 of kjBuckets.
It includes a header 'rename2.h' which I found in the Python 152 source, but
not in Python 2.0 - so I just used the old one.
I'm getting lots of errors and warnings, let me start by commenting on these
2:
For the following line (#160): enum GState { UNKNOWN, FREE, ROOT,
OVERFLOW };
What are these constants? Only OVERFLOW is defined on my system. The
compiler reports: "syntax error : 'constant'".
And the line: (#3295): OB_HEAD_INIT(&Typetype)
Causes the compiler to report: "initializer is not a constant".
'TypeType' is defined in that rename2.h header file (above) as PyType_Type
which is imported from the Python DLL, so it can't be treated as a constant.
I believe I've seen this before - the value will need to be set during
module initialization. But before I get into that I wanted to ask 'is this
legal in GCC?' Is this legal in ANSI-C? Or does this relate to the
differences between Linux's .so files and windows' DLL's?
Tom.
