Erik Bray added the comment: FWIW, even with this patch and --without-threads Python does *not* build successfully on Cygwin64 (which is all I'm really interested in personally), though it does succeed on 32-bit Cygwin. This has two related reasons:
1) The build of Python's bundled libffi does not work on 64-bit Cygwin for at least a few reasons that I won't go into here. There doesn't seem to be a ticket yet for that so I'll open one. 2) Using --with-system-ffi doesn't work for reasons I talked about in #2445, and also discussed a bit in #1706863 ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13756> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
