However, on x86_64-cygwin, pthread_key_t is a pointer and so the native calls fail when passed the incorrect values. As for fixing it, we could s/int/long/g those APIs, but I'm not sure what the ramifications of that might be. Can you think of a better solution?
I have patchsets ready for 2.7.5 (to fix the parsetuple issue) and 3.2.5 in Ports git; see 3.2-thread-cygwin64.patch for my proposed solution, which would have to be rebased to a newer version and expanded to all the other platform-specific implementations before pushing upstream.
If you're okay with these, I have packages ready for x86_64. http://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=cygwin-ports/python;a=tree http://cygwin-ports.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=cygwin-ports/python3;a=tree Yaakov
