Following up on a threat I made earlier, I've fiddled my (Windows) build so that:

• obmalloc.c is now compiled directly. It's no longer #include'd by object.c.

• All the _PyMalloc_XXX entry points are physically inside obmalloc.c now (not some in object.c, and others in obmalloc.c).

This was easy to get working under the Windows build because I knew how to do it . In staring at setup.py, though, I find I have no idea how to get it to work on your platform (let alone on the Mac). I find it hard to believe it could just work by magic.

Do Unixish boxes still use Makefile.pre.in? If I add

    Objects/obmnalloc.o \

to the OBJECT_OBJS definition there, and remove this now-pointless line:

Objects/object.o: (srcdir)/Objects/object.c(srcdir)/Objects/object.c (srcdir)/Objects/object.c(srcdir)/Objects/obmalloc.c

is that enough?

Goodness knows nobody hesitates to break the Windows build , but I'd just as soon not break yours if I can help it.
