Description
Feature or enhancement
Enable building cpython on Windows through the traditional configure route, for instance with mingw32.
Pitch
Enables other compilers such as clang to build cpython on Windows, instead of constraining it to the traditional PCbuild toolchain, to narrow the gap between Unix and Windows styles in the build.
Previous discussion
Not Applicable
Note: Only allows configure to run outside of PCbuild on Windows, to successfully build cpython for Windows with clang, the following modification needs to be added to Setup.local:
