[issue4214] no extension debug info with msvc9compiler.py

[Martin v. Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

/pdb:None initially did *not* mean "no debug information", but "no pdb file", see

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa278542(VS.60).aspx

Debug information would be embedded to the DLL.

Later versions of the VS documentation fail to mention "None" as a special value. Assuming it still has its original semantics, I fail to see the bug in this report.
