The Extension documentation says:

--------
2.3.5. Other options
There are still some other options which can be used to handle special cases.

The optional option is a boolean; if it is true, a build failure in the extension will not abort the build process, but instead simply not install the failing extension.
---------

However there not such option, and distutils will complain:

/usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/extension.py:133: UserWarning: Unknown Extension options: 'optional'
