Comment:
Please remove everything from the patch that involves deleting support for
Cygwin. Though I'm now not gung ho about the future of porting Sage to
Cygwin and using it, I definitely don't think we should start silently
sneaking in removing bits of cygwin support left and right all over in
Sage! If somebody already did the work to figure out how to get numpy to
build on Cygwin, let's not just delete that. What if I'm wrong, and it
turns out that some genius does get Sage working well on Cygwin (and if
nothing else, deleting cygwin support should be a different ticket).
The actual change for OS X 10.7 seems to be:
* general clean up SPKG.txt -- good!
* test for "intel" or "i386" instead of just "i386" -- can't be bad.
So I think the cygwin deletions should be deleted from this patch, then
this should get a positive review once somebody checks that it actually
works.
