For the record: pycrypto is an (optional) Twisted depdendency, and accelerated _fastmath is clearly desirable.

The issue is still there, PyPy 2.2 can't use PyCrypto due to this, and @gooksankoo: PyPy's performance with cpyext stuff has significantly improved (with 2.2 release).

However, for PyPy, the best thing would be to port this to cffi. This works on CPy and PyPy with high-performance, and one does not loose sanity when programming (as with CPy C API). Anyway.
