Not sure how the patch would look like, but I would expect that any patch to build a module to include Makefile settings makes it *less* robust: every time you add or remove a Makefile variable, you have to remember to adjust the module as well. Currently, you can access arbitrary Makefile variables. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9807> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
