Martin v. Löwis added the comment: Without looking into the details of the issue: conditionalizing a work-around on OSX sounds right. On the one hand, it may penalize OSX releases which get it right. OTOH, it's all Apple's fault (IIUC), so they deserve it :-)
Further, using a build-time check for the OS release is inappropriate, since the binary should work on other releases as well; a run-time check is probably more costly than the work-around. ---------- nosy: +loewis _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15477> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
