Compiling `multiprocessing` on OpenBSD fails. `iovec` is not declared. Adding the following line to multiprocessing.c solves the problem: #include <sys/uio.h> But right after I got: ./python:build/lib.openbsd-4.4-amd64-2.6/_multiprocessing.so: undefined symbol 'sem_timedwait' It looks like multiprocessing is using a function that is not defined in OpenBSD and very likely on other BSD's (FreeBSD & NetBSD don't have a man page for this function) According to this page, some other systems don't have this function: http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/sem_005ftimedwait.html
