I think it's safe to remove it. The last reference to it I found was in the 2.0 release, where there is a Parser/Makefile (generated from Parser/Makefile.in) which contains the following gem:
# This target is used by the master Makefile to add the objects to the library add2lib: $(OBJS) $(AR) cr $(LIBRARY) $(AROBJS) if test ! -f ../Modules/hassignal; \ then echo adding intrcheck.o; $(AR) r $(LIBRARY) intrcheck.o; \ else echo leaving intrcheck.o out; fi touch add2lib This Makefile.in was deleted in http://svn.python.org/view?view=revision So I think you're fine killing that file. --Guido On Wed, Jun 15, 2011 at 3:21 PM, Antoine Pitrou <solip...@pitrou.net> wrote: > > Hello, > > I may be missing something, but I'm wondering whether > Parser/intrcheck.c is still used anywhere. > > It's only mentioned in some comments: > > $ grep -r intrcheck.c * > Modules/signalmodule.c:1197:/* Replacements for intrcheck.c functionality > PC/os2vacpp/makefile.omk:217: # intrcheck.c -- Not Referenced by Anyone > (?) > Python/sigcheck.c:3: interrupt occurs.
