You mean the core developers other than Stefan? ;-) I don't have any objection to a patch for this problem, provided that that patch is specifically targeted at FreeBSD 4, and clearly doesn't change behaviour on any other platform. On one hand I agree that FreeBSD 4 isn't a high priority platform; on the other, it's not *that* obscure, and failure to build the Python core (rather than the extension modules) is quite a big deal. It's also a regression from 2.6, IIUC. And it should be easy to fix, with a single block of code in pyport.h. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10052> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
