You can use the distutils.command.config command class to write configuration and test compilation methods. These have complete control over the compiler being used, so switching off optimization for the purpose of configuration should be possible.
Does this work on non-unix platforms? MacOS9 is on the way out (it definitely won't work there), but I wouldn't be surprised if stuff like this also won't work on Windows or BeOS or whatever.
If you mean the config command, yes, this also works on Windows. I use it to check for C APIs and to find locations of C libs and header files. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Software directly from the Source (#1, May 01 2003)
