Comment:
Since you asked me to do the commit, I added the patch rather than
blacklisting the compiler to avoid the need for installing an additional
compiler, r150998. It doesn't make much of a difference either way. Most
MP users probably need to have clang 3.4 installed anyway.
This has only been a problem since some version of 3.5 (the initial RCs
comiled ok).
As far as the upstream is concerned: the `configure` script contains
nearly 18k lines already. I don't think that adding 10 additional lines
would add so much more complexity. The source code doesn't need any
changes at all, one only needs to correct an "incomplete test" for a
feature. I agree that the number of Lion users is declining and that this
is not a problem in MacPort where blacklisting a compiler is super easy.
But on the other hand the patch is not too ugly and I don't see any good
reason to refuse patching the upstream sources (other than perhaps saying
that the patch could/should be improved). Of course, if Python switches to
C++11, this will be a different story.
