Note that you only need to do 'python setup.py cython' if you want to make
the .c files and *not* actually compile them. If you have cython, then
'python setup.py build' works as before, executing the cython->c translation
as the first step.

This function is mainly for the 'sdist' command, so we can assemble the .c
source files for a source-distribution (tarball) without compiling the
extensions.
