Hi Arfever,

I get the same error on my (Linux) box as well. It looks like this
error is new in r47 of ctypesgen because the ctypes python bindings
build fine on my machine with r46.

Changing "linux" to "linux2" and replacing "self.other_paths.copy()"
with "self.other_dirs[:]" in ctypesgencore/libraryloader.py seems to
fix the compile problem. Tim, is this the right solution? I've
attached the complete patch (including Arfrever's changes) as
libraryloader-patch.txt.

Unfortunately, after running ctypesgen on the new version, I still get
errors in the csvn test suite because NULL is defined as 0 instead of
None. (ctypesgen got this from /usr/include/linux/stddef.h). Should
ctypesgen override this with NULL = None? Python doesn't treat "0" as
a NULL pointer.

Cheers,

David
