Yes, it's a proper and idiomatic use of the subjunctive mood, which
many native (American) English speakers manage to mangle.

It does, however, make the common mistake of putting an apostrophe in a
possessive personal pronoun.

Hi all,
I'm having some trouble making some bits of the Python core code
available to extension modules. Specifically, I'm trying to add a
function 'Py_force_to_memory' to Python/pymath.c and then use
it (via a macro) from Modules/cmathmodule.c. But importing of
the cmath module fails with a
(1) Is this an OS X only problem?
Probably not. If nothing of pymath.c is actually needed when linking
the python executable, pymath.o will be excluded by the linker.
(2) Is there an easy way to force a particular symbol (or all the
symbols from a particular object file) to be exported in the

Sounds right to me.
To fix this, I see three solutions

It's a little bit messy: some bits of pymath.c (hypot, and possibly
copysign) are needed in the core, but only on platforms whose
math libraries haven't caught up with C99.
It would be possible to only build the module if it defines any
functions; that should be checked in configure.
