Sorry, did not know that command,

$ cygcheck /usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/_ctypes.dll

Seems like it. Thank you so much Yaakov. Sorry I browsed over the "problems=
.html"
webpage, but overlooked the existence of cygcheck.

So thanks again, hereby I confirm not only ctypes works, but the eclipse py=
dev
plugin works with the cygwin python interpreter very well.

All the best, have a very nice week, greetings from W=FCrzburg
Kay
