Python should be able to compile with any C89-compliant compiler, so it seems a good idea to open a bug for compile errors instead. In this case, the fix is trivial, though, so I'm simply committing it (replace a C++-style comment ("// ...") with a normal "/* ... */")). Can you try again with r84799? That said, it seems xlc (or xlc_r) enables additional C extensions compared to cc, so perhaps it's beneficial to use it anyway? ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1633863> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
