I also included libxml2 and libxslt statically linked.

It worked ok, but there were issues with posix threads.

I did this over a year ago. It’s probably easier now and perhaps threads really work instead of deadlock.

Does anyone have luck doing a conditional compile of the different builtin modules? What is the smallest size that the python vm could get down to?

It would be interesting to remove the compiler and only provide the ability to run .pyc files.

Is there a embeded python SIG somewhere ?

I got python working on an ARM9 linux system;  The latest (2.4.4) version of python compiled fine using scratchbox.  The stripped executable is 1.0MB, but I needed to include a couple libraries.  I

also took a bunch of the .pyc files from /usr/local/lib/python2.4, and they seem to work well.

(lib-dynload seems quite important)
