writing python extensions in assembly

[inhahe]

Well the problem is that I'm actually not an assembler guru, so I don't know 
how to implement a dll in asm or use a c calling convention, although I'm 
sure those instructions are available on the web.  I was just afraid of 
trying to learn that AND making python-specific extensions at the same time. 
I thought of making a c extension with embedded asm, but that just seemed 
less than ideal.  But if somebody thinks that's the Right Way to do it, 
that's good enough..
