UCS-2 vs UCS-4 builds

@ -282,10 +283,30 @@ But you should never have a wheel with a name like::
|
|||
PKG-VERSION-cp27-none-manylinux1_x86_64.whl
|
||||
^^^^ BAD! Don't do this!
|
||||
|
||||
This wheel claims to be simultaneously compatible with *both* ucs2 and
|
||||
ucs4 builds, which is bad.
|
||||
|
||||
We note for information that the ``ucs4`` ABI appears to be much more
|
||||
widespread among Linux CPython distributors.

|

fpectl builds vs. no fpectl builds
|
||||
----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
All extant versions of CPython can be built either with or without the
|
||||
``--with-fpectl`` flag to ``configure``. It turns out that this
|
||||
changes the CPython ABI: extensions that are built against a
|
||||
no-``fpectl`` CPython are always compatible with yes-``fpectl``
|
||||
CPython, but the reverse is not necessarily true. (Symptom: errors at
|
||||
import time complaining about ``undefined symbol: PyFPE_jbuf``.) See:
|
||||
[16]_.
|
||||
|
||||
For maximum compatibility, therefore, the CPython used to build
|
||||
manylinux1 wheels must be compiled *without* the ``--with-fpectl``
|
||||
flag, and manylinux1 extensions must not reference the symbol
|
||||
``PyFPE_jbuf``.
