I think this is a very important point. Initially I was skeptical about m68k, too (msg182388), but I've completely changed my opinion due to the nature of the patches. So far, the m68k issues were about C-standard compliance and timing assumptions in tests. This one is a small patch that won't affect anything else. My experience with exotic Linux ports (Debian SPARC, etc.) is that the Python test suite works rather well out of the box. So I don't expect to have a flood of posixmodule.c patches or similar (perhaps Andreas can confirm that). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20904> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
