bz2 module completed

I’ve finished porting the CPython’s bz2 module to ctypes plus PyPy and this was the last module in my SoC proposal :-)

It doesn’t compile yet, for the same reason _ssl doesn’t compile either. PyPy’s rctypes has some limitations in structures and function pointers.

In those days I realized how nice is bzip2 library and how simulating pointers in Python can be a pain…
