Python debug libraries

[Mike C. Fletcher]

See my recent post...

http://groups.google.ca/groups?q=debug+extension+win32+group:comp.lang.python&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=mailman.26.1065949224.2192.python-list%40python.org&rnum=2

(all one line).  You probably don't want to debug *everything*, just 
your particular extension, and this recipe allows that fairly readily 
w/out requiring getting every single dependency built against debug 
Python (which can be a royal PITA).

HTH,
Mike
