[issue6377] distutils compiler switch ignored

[Anthony Tuininga]

New submission from Anthony Tuininga <anthony.tuininga at gmail.com>:

With the release of Python 3.1 the --compiler switch is ignored in
Lib/distutils/command/build_ext.py. The attached patch fixes that issue.
Once that was fixed there was another issue with get_version() in
cygwincompiler but that appears to be fixed in the 3.1 branch. The
revision that introduced this problem is 72596 (from 72593 in trunk).
