[Pythonmac-SIG] numarray 1.5.2 compilation 10.4 ppc

[Kim Branson]

Hi,

i'm trying to build numarray 1.5.2 for 10.4 on a ppc machine, using  
gcc 4.0.

i get the following errors:

this machine does not have the MacOSX10.4u sdk.   it has xcode 2.1  
installed.
there are a few versions of limits in

/usr/include/i386/limits.h
/usr/include/i386/_limits.h
/usr/include/limits.h
/usr/include/machine/limits.h
/usr/include/machine/_limits.h
/usr/include/ppc/limits.h
/usr/include/ppc/_limits.h
/usr/include/sys/syslimits.h
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.0/include/limits.h

should i try to get setup.py to use these?

cheers

Kim
