Yeah, getrlimit() and setrlimit() are Unix system calls.  They are
prototyped in unistd.h which doesn't exist on windows.

I hear you.  For temporary relief, install cygwin.  It comes with
python now and that should have the Unix-only modules available
(because cygwin is (to some extent) unix).  FYI XFree86 and KDE are
available (as precompiled binaries, no less) for cygwin.  That's what
I'm using at work until I get to install Debian.

HTH,
