If the user does not explicitly override + the default C compiler by setting the CC environment variable, + Distutils will now attempt to compile extension modules with clang + if gcc-4.2 is required but not found. Also as a convenience, if + the user does explicitly set CC, substitute its value as the default + compiler in the Distutils LDSHARED configuration variable for OS X. + (Note, the python.org 32-bit-only Pythons use gcc-4.0 and the 10.4u + SDK, neither of which are available in Xcode 4. This change does not + attempt to override settings to support their use with Xcode 4.) + - Issue #13960: HTMLParser is now able to handle broken comments when strict=False. |
