Any of your 3 options sounds reasonable to me (although i. sounds potentially fragile in the face of different versions of gcc, so iii. might be necessary anyway). The quick and dirty approach would be a variant of ii. that just skipped the offending test for GCC on x86_64 machines. The platform library would make that fairly straightforward: >>> platform.python_compiler() 'GCC 4.4.1' >>> platform.machine() 'x86_64' ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8482> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
