Damn. OK. [SNIP] > It might be reasonable to add a variable that will just take additional > compiler flags, and never be modified in configure. The other option is to not make configure.in skip injecting arguments when a pydebug build is done based on whether OPT is defined in the environment. So configure.in:670 could change to ``OPT="$OPT -g -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes"``. The line for a non-debug build could stay as-is since if people are bothering to tweak those settings for a normal build they are going out of there way to tweak settings. Seems like special-casing this for pydebug builds makes sense since the default values will almost always be desired for a pydebug build. And those rare cases you don't want them you could just edit the generated Makefile by hand. Besides it just makes our lives easier and the special builds even more usual since it is one less thing to have to tweak. Sound reasonable? -Brett _______________________________________________ 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
