Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <l...@lkcl.net> added the comment: hiya folks,
lots of comments here. in no particular order: 1) thanks for reopening the bug 2) apologies for not being clearer - it's Lib/test/test_testzip.py specifically the TestZip64InSmallFiles case that's failing. 3) it's not yet _clear_ whether strtol is the cause of the problem - i haven't yet got round to testing that because i'm in the middle of a rebuild trying to get msvcr80 assemblies to work, and i'll need to back out of that and rebuild with msvcrt or msvcrt71 first. 4) i'm not yet certain as to whether it's the mingw 3.4.5 _compiler_ that's broken (!) there's some empirical evidence suggesting that it might well be, but again, that's not yet determined 5) under wine, strtol goes through to msvcrt, which goes through to ntdll, which goes through to the _unix_ system's strtol. wine is compiled with -m32, so it _should_ still all be doing 32-bit stuff, even though i'm using a 64-bit host (debian/amd64). on balance, i'd very much appreciate this being kept open so that i can keep track of determining what the heck is going on - i have about five or six different things to investigate. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4977> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
