Here is an overview of the scope of such an effort:

./lib/python/persistent/TimeStamp.c
./lib/python/persistent/cPersistence.c
./lib/python/ZODB/winlock.c
./lib/Components/BTree/intSet.c


Note that most of these are absolute requirements, although a few
(cAccessControl.c, for one) have pure-Python equivalents,  Some
('_initgroups.c', 'winlock.c') might be irrelevant on a given platform.
