Building py25-xml fails due to -Wno-long-double

[hans.ekkehard.plesser@…]

Building py25-xml failed with

cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-Wno-long-double"
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

Configuration:

• MacPorts 1.7.0
• OSX 10.5.6
• XCode 3.1.2
• /opt/local/bin/gcc is gcc 4.3.2

The reason for the failure is that the long-deprecated -Wno-long-double option has been removed from gcc (see also #17788).

The -Wno-long-double option is inherited from the Python distutils.sysconfig configuration variables and needs to be deleted in setup.py. A patch doing this is attached.

Diff extending py25-xml setup.py to delete -Wno-long-double from distutils.sysconfig configuration variables.

The preferred fix would be to change

build.env       CC=gcc

to

build.env       CC=${configure.cc}

to use the compiler set by configure.compiler (which should be defaulting to Xcode's gcc)
