autoconf update to 2.65 and cleanup
configure is still generated by 2.61; would it be possible to update to 2.65? The cr_lf issue mentioned in [1] seems to be resolved, ac_cr is now defined as ac_cr=`echo X | tr X '\015'` Proposing to - fix some quoting in help strings and code snippets (#8509) - update to autoconf 2.65 (#8510) - convert obsolete macros (AC_HELP_STRING, AC_TRY_*, AC_AIX, ...) one by one (tracking these in separate reports). Could this be done for both trunk and py3k branch, even if 2.7 already is in beta? Matthias [1] http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2008-November/083781.html

Yes, everything is possible. Open a new issue and write a patch ;-)
even if 2.7 already is in beta?
I'm not sure that it's a good idea to change the build process after the first beta. It would depend on the issue comments ;-) -- Victor Stinner http://www.haypocalc.com/

OTOH, this doesn't seem like a new feature, so I think it should be okay. Doubly so if it fixes a bug. <wink> -Barry

I'm with Barry; if this fixes something then it's worth a go. -Brett
