builds during which he forgot to uncomment crucial library lines in
Setup, walks into Guido's East End nightclub with a tactical nuclear
weapon on his shoulder. Said nuclear weapon is promptly deployed
exactly where it will do the most good, right in the middle of
configure.in.
With this patch, the set of libraries autoconfigured in is extended to
include ndbm, gdbm, and crypt. This essentially eliminates any need to
tweak Setup for a normal Linux build.

of dbmmodule dynamically by default (otherwise it can pull in
dependencies with libdb that croak pybsddb3). This change moves the
Setup line for dbmmodule to Setup.config.in.
- when compiling with GCC on Solaris, use "$(CC) -shared" instead
of "$(CC) -G" to generate .so files
- when compiling with GCC on any platform, add "-fPIC" to OPT
(without this, "$(CC) -shared" dies horribly)
regardless of whether the system getopt() does what we want. This avoids the
hassle with prototypes and externs, and the check to see if the system
getopt() does what we want. Prefix optind, optarg and opterr with _PyOS_ to
avoid name clashes. Add new include file to define the right symbols. Fix
Demo/pyserv/pyserv.c to include getopt.h itself, instead of relying on
Python to provide it.
-Wstrict-prototypes options. This will make it a lot easier to keep
warnings under control in the first place in the future.
There is one known warning at this time, caught by the -Wstrict-prototypes
option. In Modules/main.c, the declaration of getopt() without parameters
gets a complaint (rightly) that it is not a proper prototype. The lack of
a complete prototype information should be corrected when the right
portability conditions have been identified.
Approved by the Guido.
Tony Lownds: [ Patch #101816 ] Fixes shared modules on Mac OS X
1. Mac OS X is recognized by the Next-ish host recognition code as
"Darwin/1.2"
2. When specifying just --with-dyld, modules can compile as shared
3. --with-dyld and --with-next-framework, modules can compile as
shared
4. --with-suffix=.exe, and Lib/plat-darwin1.2 is being made, the regen
script invokes python as python.exe
[I had to reformat this patch a bit to make it work. Please test!]
Dan Wolfe: [ Patch #101823 ] Fix Darwin POSIX Thread redefinition
The patch below fixes the redefinition problem in Darwin with
_POSIX_THREADS. I'm not sure if this is the correct long term fix but
for now it fixes the problem and the fix is specific to Darwin.
Dan Wolfe: [ Patch #101824 ] On Darwin, remove unrecognized option
`-OPT:Olimit=0'
After many, many, many compiles, I finally got itchy of this warning
cluttering up the output... so I scratched (Darwin configs only) and
it's gone! :-)

test ! -z "directory" -a -d "directory"
Apparently, on SunOS 4.1.4_JL (and other?) OSes, -d on an empty string
always returns true. This closes SF bug #115392.
-D_HPUX_SOURCE and also turns on long long support.
Suggestion by stnor@sweden.hp.com (Stefan Norberg).
Please test this if you have access to HP-UX!!!
I can't test this, so I'm just checking it in with blind faith in Andy.
I've tested that it doesn't broeak a non-Pth build on Linux.
Changes include:
- There's a --with-pth configure option.
- Instead of _GNU_PTH, we test for HAVE_PTH.
- Better signal handling.
- (The config.h.in file is regenerated in a slightly different order.)
