Absolutely, positively no. This is horrible and completely wrong. Applications on AIX should not be compiled to allow dynamic linking to make them operate more like SVR4/Linux. Python does not require dynamic linking. This simply is masking a symptom in a naive and incorrect manner. Use of runtime linking causes many internal changes to the behavior of AIX applications, severely affecting performance and potentially causing overflow of data structures. We currently are going through the process of removing this brain damage from CMake. I absolutely will not allow Python to go down this path and introduce this type of mistake. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37690> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
