Comment(by glynn):
Replying to [ticket:2581 sebastic]:
> The attached patch encloses the Python ternary expression in parenthesis
to fix an issue with the C to Python conversion of the stat & stat64
structs on GNU/Hurd.
It would be better to use Python's own conditional-expression syntax (a if
cond else b). The and-or hack produces the wrong answer if the if-true
expression evaluates to false.
Python's conditional-expression syntax probably didn't exist when
ctypesgen was written (it was added in 2.5), but GRASS doesn't support any
Python version old enough for that to matter (IIRC, we officially require
at least 2.6, and having 2.7-isms slip into the code by accident hasn't
been particularly uncommon).
