[New-bugs-announce] [issue17391] _cursesmodule Fails to Build on GCC 2.95 (static)

[Jeffrey Armstrong]

New submission from Jeffrey Armstrong:

When compiling Modules/_cursesmodule.c as a static module with GCC 2.95.3, an error is encountered on line 2260 in PyCurses_GetWin.  The error occurs because the PyCursesInitialised macro appears prior _Py_IDENTIFIER(read), which is actually a variable declaration.  Switching the order of the statements fixes the issue.

In all other functions within Modules/_cursesmodule.c, PyCursesInitialised always appears after all variable declarations.

This bug was encountered on the platform m68k-atari-mint using Python 3.3.0 and GCC 2.95.3.
