Is that also wrong, > and if so, why? Practically: I don't know for sure about a larger value. As it is presumably very close to POSIX, it shouldn't significantly harm the ability to compile stuff. I can't say for sure. However, specifying _XOPEN_SOURCE is still unnecessary I believe. Theoretically: yes, it's wrong for Python to claim that all extensions are compliant to a particular XPG environment. If it helps, Martin, I can put you in touch with our standards expert. I'm far from such, so this might help assuage your doubts? _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1759169> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
