Seppo Yli-Olli added the comment: Since Renata's ERRATA was unclear to whether or not this was *actually* removed (please point to a changeset if the option was removed): If the option is no longer required by Pidgin and that was the original reason to have it in the first, there's really no reason *not* to remove this, no?
Eg this code > int main() { return 0; } Fails to compile on MingW gcc 4.6 and 4.7 when passing -mno-cygwin to gcc. The solution that distutils does not work with current versions of MingW (and GCC) for good is unacceptable so the only working solution is removal of no-cygwin. Just that GCC 4.4 would support the flag does not change this bug one way or the other. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
