distutil2 is almost identical to distutils as far as compilation goes,
so I am not sure why it would help the OP.
@Lukas: if you want to check for compiler flag support, the best way
to do it in distutils is to use the config support: look in particular
in the try_compile/try_link methods. The schema is basically:
# code may refer to e.g. a trivial extension source code
try_compile(code) # check that the current option set is sane
for each additional flag you are interested:
save compiler option
add the additional flag
if try_compile(code) == 0:
restore compiler option
cheers,
David
