[issue36125] Cannot cross-compile to more featureful but same tune

[Xavier de Gaye]

Xavier de Gaye <xdegaye at gmail.com> added the comment:

Re-opening and setting the stage as 'needs patch': at least the cross-compilation should fail with a clear message when the cross-built libraries names and those of the native interpreter have the same suffix.

Meanwhile a workaround may be to build the native interpreter with Py_DEBUG defined (using the --with-pydebug configure option) so that libraries names become different.
