gcc. Without this flag, doing pretty much anything with NaNs causes
a Floating Point Exception signal. This causes the interpreter to quit.
The failing tests this fixes are: test_float, test_long, and test_struct.
This is somewhat equivalent to doing signal(SIGFPE, SIG_IGN).
Will verify if this is a problem in 2.4 and backport if necessary (probably).
This was a fair amount of rework of the patch. Refactored test_fork1 so it
could be reused by the new tests for wait3/4. Also made them into new style
unittests (derive from unittest.TestCase).
This inappropriately disabled some capabilities which exist.
Now test for readline in -lreadline, if not found there, try it
in -ltermcap only if not in -lreadline. If both libraries are
required, there will need to be more work, but I'm not sure
under what conditions both libraries would be required.
POSIX is enabled. This prevents the toolbox glue, all of Carbon,
and various other non-POSIX features from compiling. The POSIX
symbols are still used by default, so turning off the #define
doesn't hurt.
Additionally, linker flags have changed for Darwin 8, and are
different for Darwin 8/gcc4 (default) and Darwin 8/gcc3.3.

MacOSX: if we cannot use -undefined dynamic_lookup (such as on 10.2 or earlier)
we link extension directly against the dynamic library in the framework in
stead of against the framework. This will fix building extensions for 2.3
after 2.4 has been installed too.
to make using "-undefined dynamic_lookup" for linking extensions more
automatic on 10.3 and later. So if we're on that platform and
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is not set we now set it to the current OSX
version during configure. Additionally, distutils will pick up the
configure-time value by default.
Will backport.

This patch trims down the Python core on Darwin by making it
independent of CoreFoundation and CoreServices. It does this by:
Changed linker flags in configure/configure.in
Removed the unused PyMac_GetAppletScriptFile
Moved the implementation of PyMac_StrError to the MacOS module
Moved the implementation of PyMac_GetFullPathname to the
Carbon.File module
because GNU/k*BSD uses gnu pth to provide pthreads, but will also happen on any
system that does the same.
python fails to build because it doesn't detect gnu pth in pthread
emulation. See C comments in patch for details.
patch taken from http://bugs.debian.org/264315
discussed recently in python-dev:
In _locale module:
- bind_textdomain_codeset() binding
In gettext module:
- bind_textdomain_codeset() function
- lgettext(), lngettext(), ldgettext(), ldngettext(),
which return translated strings encoded in
preferred system encoding, if
bind_textdomain_codeset() was not used.
- Added equivalent functionality in translate()
function and catalog classes.
Every change was also documented.
[ 960406 ] unblock signals in threads
although the changes do not correspond exactly to any patch attached to
that report.
Non-main threads no longer have all signals masked.
A different interface to readline is used.
The handling of signals inside calls to PyOS_Readline is now rather
different.
These changes are all a bit scary! Review and cross-platform testing
much appreciated.
