... I propose adding a fourth, optional, "flags" argument to the builtin "compile" function. If this argument is omitted, there will be no change in behaviour from that of Python 2.1.
If it is present it is expected to be an integer, representing various possible compile time options as a bitfield.
Nit: What is the virtue to using a C-style bitfield? The efficiency isn't much of an issue. I'd prefer either keyword arguments or a list of strings. -- Take a recipe. Leave a recipe. Python Cookbook! http://www.ActiveState.com/pythoncookbook
