P.S.: Thank you for this information. You know, we here (and i personally too) don't fiddle around with this, because there is no time left over for such things. We have discovered flags which work (especially hairy for ld(1) and dynamic libraries and concurrent installs), wrote a bunch of Perl configure scripts which use '$^O eq' and, for performance, &$COMPILE_PTF($TCC, $TEXE, 'sysdeps/generic/x86/cnf.cpuid.c'), and try to realize the rest with good coding style. No '.weak' and other maybe object file format dependend stuff around here. And i just wanted to try Mac OS once, so i bought a MacBook. It looks beautiful and fancontrol is automatic and fantastic and i try hard to forget that i'm looking at OpenGL and myriads of floating-point calculations. But i was out of this game once i've written an OGG player (there was none and no /dev/whatever accessible here), trying AudioUnit and CoreAudio, which confirm something in an event handler and have forgotten it after that returns. And then there was a crash and i discovered that Mazzoni's Audacity includes comments on this crash in the Mac OS sources from a *long* time ago. And so i decided that i don't want to do Apple, and lucky me i don't need to make money with doing so nonetheless. And now i think you have the complete picture on that. Thanks again. :) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11808> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
