[Cython] possible regression on cython-devel

[Lisandro Dalcin]

After hg update'd cython-devel, and now the code below generates a
compiler error:

cdef extern from "compat.h":
    pass
   ^
------------------------------------------------------------

/u/dalcinl/Devel/petsc4py-dev/src/PETSc/PETSc.pyx:67:4: Expected an
identifier, found 'pass'


IIRC, that is a documented way to force inclusion of C headers... What
this intentional? BTW... "tests/broken/cdefexternempty.pyx" has a
tescase for this... For some reason, it never got promoted as a
working test...
