Traditionally, MingW-compiled Python binaries would often be binary-incompatible with the ones available from python.org, since the MingW build would use a different version of the MS CRT than the python.org version. As a consequence, extensions built for the official binaries would crash in the MingW build, and vice versa. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <[email protected]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10615> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
