Ok, this is a "works-for-me"-recipe since I had problems with Pyrex  
as well.

* Remove every installation of Pyrex you already installed just to be  
on the save side
* Create an external definition in your repository and link it to the  
Pyrex version on codespeak.net

	In your lxml checkout directory call

		svn propedit svn:externals .

	and add the following line

		Pyrex http://codespeak.net/svn/lxml/pyrex/Pyrex

* Do a "svn up" again to checkout the Pyrex version to your local  
repository
* Try building lxml again.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Michael
