Michael Stahl added the comment: (note that i haven't used any Solaris myself since 2011)
* the #ifdef SOLARIS block still exists in current hg checkout * according to comment http://bugs.python.org/msg18910 the SOLARIS macro can not be defined during a build of python itself, so: - the #ifdef SOLARIS block does not break build of python itself - the #ifdef SOLARIS block has no useful purpose * the #ifdef SOLARIS block is in a public header that may be included by _other_projects_' source files, and if those other projects happen to define a SOLARIS macro then they get the breakage (as the OOo patch demonstrates) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue837046> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
