This looks weird, are you sure you copied this correctly?

And this seems to be where things continue:

I actually think that it's the "install" that hits us here. The
refnanny.pyx isn't copied on installation, as we expect the .so file to be
built already. However, you call "install" with the "--skip-build" option,
which prevents the build of the shared library, thus preventing the
refnanny from being available at all.

We might just declare the refnanny.pyx file as package data, so that it's
copied into the installation. It doesn't hurt to have it lying next to the
refnanny.so file.

Here's another patch. BTW, you can pass the "--no-cython-compile" option to
your "setup.py install" call to keep it from compiling certain source files
multiple times. It's well enough if it does that once on "setup.py build".
