I think that currently the best page for that actually
is the compliancy test results page:
http://codespeak.net/~hpk/pypy-testresult/
especially in the "non-core" section further below. You'll
see a list of the currently not implemented C-level modules.
However, most interesting is completing full posix/os-module
support e.g. for listdir() and process-creation
functionality. Also having a socket-API wrapper at
RPython/low-level-function level and for e.g. 'zlib' seem
like "big time" enablers for allowing more programs/modules to
run on top of pypy-c/pypy-llvm. (we are employing a "pypy-XYZ"
scheme where XYZ marks the backend).
Recently, Niklaus Heidimann successfully implemented
the array and _sre module as part of his SOC project, of
which he got the latter to translate to low-level during the
last Heidelberg sprint!
cheers,
holger
