[Python-Dev] porting problems

[Andrew Perella]

Problem 1:
I have compiled python2.2.3c1 for the xbox and the gamecube. When I import a
large module (generated by swig) the xbox version takes 6MB whilst the
gamecube takes 1MB. This is despite using the same custom malloc replacement
code. This problem occurrs whenever the python module being imported gets
bigger than a few thousand lines long. I do not know why the versions do not
behave identically as they both are using a near identical hand generated
pyconfig.h.

Problem 2:
  What d o I need to do to get errors on import etc to show up in my own
custom error printing routines. t the moment I cannot find them unless I am
using the very high python/c interface functions. (In this case I can set
stderr to a custom class and everything works fine)

Any ideas as to what the problems are?
Regards
Andrew
