[Twisted-Python] Recompiling _epoll.pyx

[Reza Lotun]

Hi,

I noticed in the documentation for _epoll.pyx that the corresponding
.c file was generated using pyrex 0.9.4.1. On a whim I downloaded
0.9.8.5 and regenerated the file and rebuilt python. I'm currently
testing my server but noticing nothing out of the ordinary.

Before I march on my merry way I was wondering if there could be any
potential pitfall of using the non-standard _epoll.c? I only though to
try it because
- I'm using Python 2.6 which I compiled from source
- I'm using Twisted trunk
- A quick glance between pyrex 0.9.4.1 to 0.9.8.5 showed a lot of
activity, some of which seemed marked with "bug fix" and "more
efficient code"
- I'm currently stress testing my server and wanted to see what sort
of changes could be induced by modifying different parts of the
system.

Anyway, just wondering.

Cheers,
Reza
