That's *not* the way to go. Treat eCos like any other POSIX system
and just add some wrapping to make things fit together.

First of all, questions like these probably belong on the
eCos mailing list (CC'd)
I've packed up the tree I used to build Python. It's a bit
old (Python 2.3) and there's no documentation other than the
Makefile. You can find it at:
http://www.mlbassoc.com/examples/python_on_eCos.tgz
You'll need to adjust the Makefile for your target, as well
as the configuration file. Once built, you'll have a Python
interpreter which runs using a file system (ROM/RAM/JFFS2)
of your choice (for all the Python packages, etc)
n.b. NO WARRANTY or SUPPORT implied. You're on your own;
ask on the mailing list if you have questions.
