internals in my setup.py: it's just a perfectly standard set of Extension() instances, and a couple of static libs, and the only distutils function I call is setup itself.
Can we see it anyway?
The relevant bit:
from distutils.core import setup, Extension
ext_modules = [] c_libraries = []
...
if os.name == "nt": fmt = '\\"%s\\"' elif os.name == "posix": fmt = '\"%s\"'
What happens if you change this to fmt = "%s" ? Cheers, M. -- 112. Computer Science is embarrassed by the computer. -- Alan Perlis, http://www.cs.yale.edu/homes/perlis-alan/quotes.html

I suppose you mean '"%s"'? Yes, that's what I should have had in the "posix" part of the if statement (though I don't much care at the moment, since I've still to get the thing to work without segfaulting on windows). The confusing part was the difference in behaviour between windows and unix -- or have I missed your point? John
