Neither, I suppose, or perhaps both. I am proposing to produce a patch now which fixes the non-Unicode build under Windows. However, I don't expect anything out of other contributors, and I don't set Python contribution policy. (Obviously the stewards of the Python tree don't care whether contributions break the non-Unicode build. But that's a fine policy; after all, they've already got enough to do, and in any case I'm the first person to even notice.) If this patch is accepted, and some future contribution breaks the non-Unicode build again, and I discover the breakage, I might very well create a second patch to re-fix it. Since I'm seemingly the only person who cares about non-Unicode builds on Windows, I suggest this approach would work just fine. /larry/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
