I'm not saying the contrary. With what I'm struggling now is the
modulated python module recipe. After updating the .buildsys/v2 I'm
having difficulties in packaging lxml module: the compiler is not
defined whatever I do.

This, in category.mk, has no effect:

include gar/gar.mk

GARCOMPILER_PYTHON_2_6 = SOS12U3
GARCOMPILER_PYTHON_2_7 = GNU
GARCOMPILER = $(GARCOMPILER_$(PYTHON_VERSION))

$(GARCOMPILER) expands to nil.

Here is the tail of the output:

running build_ext

If you have a recipe which works for this kind of package, give me a
reference.

TIA
