Ok, I have committed a patch that works for me on Py2.3-2.6.

http://hg.cython.org/cython-devel/rev/303c79051806

One thing I noticed is that at least a part of the set API is already in
Py2.4, so I had to move some of the replacements into a separate Py2.4
section. This is not in line with the Python C-API docs, which state that the
set API is new in Py2.5. I guess it just wasn't officially made public in Py2.4.

Please review the commit for now, I'll also take another look at the Py2.4
issue myself.

There already was a test for sets: tests/run/set.pyx. It was just disabled
explicitly for Py2.3. It now works for all supported Python versions.
