After a little more reflection I realise that we could just do: if self.gcc_version < '4' or is_cygwingcc(): # use -mno-cygwin This way the cygwin/gcc-4 error is still emitted only if gcc emits it. If the is_cygwingcc() function is conservative then there could be cases where it mistakenly does not use -mno-cygwin but that would have to be a broken cygwin/gcc-4 setup anyway. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12641> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
