As it turns out, MinGW also implemented, in version 3.0.0 (with binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1), features which make the creation of libpython24.a unnecessary. So whoever maintains this doc might want to note that you only need that step if you are using a version of Python prior to 2.4.1 with a MinGW prior to 3.0.0 (with binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1).
Can you please provide a patch to the documentation? None of the regular documentation maintainers would know what exactly to write; this is all user-contributed.
This isn't rocket science. Or maybe it is; if adding These instructions only apply if you're using a version of Python prior to 2.4.1 with a MinGW prior to 3.0.0 (with binutils-2.13.90-20030111-1) is not acceptable then no patch I could submit would be acceptable, because I don't know how to do better either. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
