Not for me, my test machine for 10.3 doesn't have a compiler :-)
Probably also a bit easier to make work with dumb extensions that aren't built with distutils (like subversion's Python bindings).. since they'd just have to add a little conditional to the Makefile- finding code, rather than re-implementing the flags mangling.
To badly parafrase you: extensions that don't use distutils to build suck and are broken. If we must support those we could add a pkg- config style script.
