[New-bugs-announce] [issue6438] cygwincompiler regular expressions broken

[Tarek Ziadé]

New submission from Tarek Ziadé <ziade.tarek at gmail.com>:

The regular expressions used in distutils to build a extension using the
mingw32 compiler are messed up because they try to work with bytes
(since Popen behavior changed) using string patterns.

I have to cleanup these regular expressions before any new 3.x release
