I created patch 1474907 with a fix for it. Checks if %zd works for size_t and if so sets PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T to "z", otherwise just doesn't set the macro def. Assigned to Martin to make sure I didn't foul it up, but pretty much anyone could probably double-check it. -Brett _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
