When trying to build the source: Modules/posixmodule.c fails to build. I'm running on XP SP1 using mingw32-make ver 3.80 Is there any known issues on XP?
Logged In: YES user_id=21627 In what way precisely does it fail? It builds fine for me with VC.NET 2003, which is the official build environment for Python on XP.
Logged In: YES user_id=986333 When I run make it crashes when it gets to Modules/posixmodule.c. This is compiling with the Ming / (Cygwin?) compiler though. I have recently tried with MSVC 6 which builds without any problems.
Logged In: YES user_id=986333 Sorry, crash is not the right word. I've attached the output from make. Let me know if that helps or if you need other info.
Logged In: YES user_id=986333 Still, happens. In the end I just compiled the source using VC6, so it doesn't really matter for me anymore though. It might be that I just don't have the MinGW environment setup right...
