[Python-Dev] Parser/intrcheck.c

[Guido van Rossum]

I think it's safe to remove it. The last reference to it I found was
in the 2.0 release, where there is a Parser/Makefile (generated from
Parser/Makefile.in) which contains the following gem:

# This target is used by the master Makefile to add the objects to the library
add2lib:        $(OBJS)
                $(AR) cr $(LIBRARY) $(AROBJS)
                if test ! -f ../Modules/hassignal; \
                then echo adding intrcheck.o; $(AR) r $(LIBRARY) intrcheck.o; \
                else echo leaving intrcheck.o out; fi
                touch add2lib

This Makefile.in was deleted in http://svn.python.org/view?view=revision

So I think you're fine killing that file.
