Using cygwin setup, I installed python (2.5.1) and sqlite3 (3.6.2-1).  Each 
of these work great on cygwin separately, and now I wanted to write a python 
program that used sqlite3.  But when I did "import sqlite3", I got the 
following error:

    ImportError:  No module named _sqlite3

I have been able to work around the problem by downloading the sources for 
pysqlite (2.5.0) from pysqlite.org and building it myself.  (Note that the 
python2.5/sqlite3 package is built from pysqlite source.)  Using cygwin 
setup again, I installed sqlite3 src (3.6.2-1-src), and tried to build 
pysqlite.  I did run into one build problem because this version of sqlite3 
does not have an entry for sqlite3_enable_load_extension().  I worked around 
this problem by turning off HAVE_LOAD_EXTENSION in connection.c.
