The distributed binaries aren't capable of allowing extensions that use gcc.
I can build the source naked, but then it lacks some libraries, notably, readline.
Attempting to build the full Mac packages fails, even with the few tiny patches I used for 2.7.2.
Is anyone working on this? Are there pre-release patches available? Should I be asking elsewhere? --rich -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
