Issue 27844: Python-3.6a4 build messages to stderr (on AIX and xlc compiler) (original) (raw)

FYI: Compiler warnings that appear on stderr (skipping any messages sent to stdout) - xlc V11 as the reporting compiler.

Two that may need attention are the redefines of _POSIX_C_SOURCE and _XOPEN_SOURCE in pyconfig.h

Also surprised by the message: Could not find platform dependent libraries Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to [:]

I do not recall seeing that message in other builds.

Note also: no messages (to stderr) from configure
