XEmacs had crashes due to strftime on Windows native with VC++. Never went so far as to BSOD, but a couple of users lost recently input data. :-( IIRC Cygwin was OK (their libc uses a different code base). Dunno mingw, almost all of our users either want the full Cygwin environment or they don't care about GCC, but since mingw uses MSFT runtime, it's probably vulnerable too. _______________________________________________ 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
