[Python-Dev] Goals for patch selection for 2.1.2

[Anthony Baxter]

Hm. What's the general consensus on portability fixes w.r.t. 2.1.2? 
I'm leaning toward "yes", but my concern is that they stand a chance 
of causing some other weird freakshow platform to fail to compile,
where it previously worked... obviously I don't mean HP/UX threading 
here, as I think it's a lost cause :) 

But on the other hand, if it helps a platform build, where it previously
did not... Hm hm hm.
