Hoppla, you are right, no frames at all. Did I say that? geee

No, it is about the type layout, there are (ah, here came the word frame
again?! ) there are type fields in CPython that stackless does not have.

Well, and because these structures are different in size, pyside must
be compiled using stackless, otherwise it crashes ugly.

(bzzt, no frames -- what's up with my brain? like a shortcut, I need 
rewiring)
