I'd be surprised if it compiled on Windows now, as I don't think any Windows users have been working on that branch. At the last (2004) PyCon, I was going to participate in the annual AST sprint again, but it was so far from working on Windows then I gave up (and joined the close-bugs/patches sprint instead). I don't have time to join the current crusade. If there's pent-up interest among Windows users, it would be good to say which compiler(s) you can use, since I expect not everyone can deal with VC 7.1 (e.g., I think Raymond Hettinger is limited to VC 6; and you said you worked up a VC 6 patch, but didn't say whether you could use 7.1 now). _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
