[New-bugs-announce] [issue7617] distutils.unixccompiler.UnixCCompiler.runtime_library_dir_option() should recognize ${configuration_name}-gcc

[Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis]

New submission from Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis <Arfrever.FTA at GMail.Com>:

distutils.unixccompiler.UnixCCompiler.runtime_library_dir_option()
currently only recognizes "gcc" or "gcc-${version" (e.g. "gcc-4.4.2"),
but it doesn't recognize "${configuration_name}-gcc" (e.g. "x86_64-pc-
"x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc-4.4.2"). Python is configured with such fully
qualified configuration names in some distributions (e.g. Gentoo).

Configuration names are described in:
