It is certainly usable without compiling -- if you just install
the .py files in your pythonpath, under zope/interface/. It'd be nice
if its setup.py file knew how to deal with the lack of a compiler
automatically, but until it does, you can just manually copy the
files in. If the latest z.i release still has this problem, perhaps
you could submit a patch to their bugtracker.
