[Stackless] Stackless for 2.1: Progress Report

The port is pretty much done, and it passes the standard
Python regression tests, except for the three XML ones.
On those it executes an invalid bytecode and later,
segfaults.

The cause is some code in pyexpat.c that does a PyFrame_New,
passing in a *dummy* codeblock (gross!) that actually
points to an empty text string (instead of real bytecodes),
just to have a codeblock to call PyEval_CallObject() with.

<sigh>

I'm trying to find a workaround for that.

Does anyone have/want to create some regression tests
for Stackless?
