This may be due to the fact that you are using Python 2.4 here and ctypes=20
comes with Python2.5. Switch to 2.5, install ctypes separately or feel free=
=20
to ignore this.

I suppose that a check has to be set up in the tests to avoid ctypes ones t=
o=20
be checked in case ctypes is not available.
