Guido van Rossum d4029c8fda Bug #1608: use -fwrapv when GCC supports it. This is important, newer
GCC versions may optimize away overflow buffer overflow checks without
this option!  Thanks to Ismail Donmez.  No thanks to the GCC devs.

Michael W. Hudson fad4640142 Update URL. 2005-06-16 15:51:20 +00:00
Brett Cannon 08cd598c21 Introduced EXTRA_CFLAGS as an environment variable used by the Makefile. Meant
to be used for flags that change binary compatibility.

Distutils was tweaked to also use the variable if used during compilation of
the interpreter.

Michael W. Hudson 71dcc3e9b4 A few random updates to make things less horrifyingly out of date.
Delete some advice that can never, ever have worked.

There are a couple of XXX comments for bits I don't know how to
update.  It would be really good not to release Python 2.5 with these
in place :)

This file is way too big.  There's basically no chance of it staying
up to date.
