OK, EXTRA_CFLAGS support has been checked into Makefile.pre.in and
distutils.sysconfig . Martin, please double-check I tweaked sysconfig the way
you wanted. I also wasn't sure of compatibility for Distutils (first time
touching it); checked PEP 291 but Distutils wasn't listed. I went ahead and

Seeing this example has convinced me of something. PEP 310 should use the

After reading a lot of contributions (though perhaps not all -- this
