Thomas Heller <theller at ctypes.org> added the comment:
The libffi library in Python 2.5 is too old and won't be upgraded to a
newer version.
I see several possibilities for you:
- Use Python 2.6 (if you can live with the beta or wait for the release)
- Use Python 2.5, compile with GCC
- Use Python 2.5, and build/install the ctypes version from Python SVN
trunk as add-on module, it is available here:
http://svn.python.org/projects/ctypes/branches/ctypes-1.1/
Closing as wont fix, sorry.
----------
resolution: -> wont fix
status: open -> closed
