New submission from Skip Montanaro <s...@pobox.com>: I don't know if the Python source is supposed to be compilable with a C++ compiler or not, but I'm having trouble finding a C compiler on the Solaris10/SPARC machines at work. I decided to give a C++ compiler a whirl:
/opt/gnu/bin/c++ -c -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -I. -IInclude -I../Include -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o Parser/tokenizer.o ../Parser/tokenizer.c ../Parser/tokenizer.c: In function `char * PyTokenizer_RestoreEncoding(tok_state *, int, int *)': ../Parser/tokenizer.c:1614: ANSI C++ forbids implicit conversion from `void *' in assignment Now this turns out to be a very old compiler: % /opt/gnu/bin/c++ --version 2.95.3 Should Python be able to compile with this ancient GNU C++ compiler?
