No python still use custom hack for MSVC. win32.S include this hack and could be compiled with gcc. > - there seem to be chunks which are unrelated to mingw, like: > > @@ -830,15 +926,18 @@ class PyBuildExt(build_ext): > if have_usable_openssl: > # The _hashlib module wraps optimized implementations > # of hash functions from the OpenSSL library. > + # NOTE: _hashlib require only OpenSSL crypto library ! > exts.append( Extension('_hashlib', ['_hashopenssl.c'], > depends = ['hashlib.h'], > include_dirs = ssl_incs, > library_dirs = ssl_libs, > - libraries = ['ssl', 'crypto']) ) > + libraries = ['crypto']) ) > > please file separate issues. > > > - why setup_info.in. looks like something which could be done with > get_config_var. Yes and no. get_config_var will use makefile variables (indirectly from sysconfigdata). If you add a make macro(variable) then it will be installed. Setup info is designed to communicate from configure to setup.py without to expose data to installation. > - why re-reading files in setup.py, and grepping these for config options? For historical reasons. Before other commits to start to look info some generated by autotool files. > > I think the patch would benefit from splitting it up into several > self-contained chunks. May be. I don't know how to group split. If is based on functionality patch order will be important as more then one patch will update "near lines" - for instance pyport.h is difficult to split :(. cygwinccompiler.py could be rewritten as separate issue, already opened. > did you try to do builds for windows and linux after this patch was applied? Title is correct. Hosts include native linux, cygwin, mingw and cross linux->mingw, linux->android ( not published ). All from one and the same source tree.
