getting rid of XRangeType

[jdemeyer]

As I have said before, don't use six.moves.range in Cython files. It slows down everything.

[chapoton]

Note that I am not using this iterator, only as the name of a type.

What else do you propose to get rid of this single XRangeType ?

Does XRangeType still work in cython with python3 ?

[jdemeyer]

Replying to chapoton:

Note that I am not using this iterator, only as the name of a type.

Whatever you do, without any exceptions: do not use six.moves.range in Cython.

[chapoton]

Then maybe one should check that it has not yet happened..

And you do not propose another solution..

[jdemeyer]

Just use xrange instead of types.XRangeType.
