It sounds like using the -xlibmieee flag is the way to go. (math_1 is already doing an excellent job of not relying on errno). Could you try compiling with this flag to see whether it fixes the problem? (Opening up the 'configure' file and adding the flag to BASECFLAGS might be the easiest way to do this; there may be easier ways.) If it does, I'll cook up a configure patch. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3167> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
