Comment(by adfernandes@…):
I'm not worried about a speed boost; I'm building native code extensions
as part of a much larger project; having compiler options ensures that I
can keep one tool-chain consistent for all my research projects.
Loading different copies of `libstdc++` into the same process is usually
fine as long as everyone is careful about visibility, ctors and dtors, and
all that. Unfortunately, that ain't often the case, so I try to keep
everything consistent because debugging shared-lib problems is a great
waste of time. I've done it, and I never want to do it again.
Anyhow... is there any reason '''not''' to allow different compiler
variants? (a) For good or evil, that's the way MacPorts is set up, and (b)
I '''need''' them - for me, the default compiler is 4.0 and I can't
integrate it cleanly into my other projects.
I appreciate that in an ideal world we'd all use the same compiler and be
happy, but that just ain't so. I require the gcc43 variant, it was trivial
to add the gcc44 variant if anyone wants it, and that's that. The change
doesn't affect anyone who doesn't want it, and the default compiler will
be used.
Thanks!
