I notice that WITHOUTCOMPLEX still appears in Python.h and several .c files but nowhere else in the 2.6, 2.7 or 3.1 source, most particularly not in configure or pyconfig.h.in. Are builds --without-complex still supported? Has it been tested at any time in the recent past?

I haven't tested it, but I still see WITHOUT_COMPLEX in trunk and py3k branches. In py3k, it's referenced in:

./Include/Python.h ./Misc/HISTORY ./Objects/complexobject.c ./Objects/object.c ./Parser/tokenizer.c ./Python/ast.c ./Python/bltinmodule.c ./Python/getargs.c ./Python/marshal.c ./Python/modsupport.c

I checked complexobject.c, and it looks like it's used correctly there.

Eric.
