[Pythonmac-SIG] Configure question

[Doug Wyatt]

I'm trying to build XIST (www.livinglogic.de) which has a Python 
extension module written in C++.  I get this same link error.

I've looked around the way configure works just a little... it seems 
that g++ (or c++) must be used as the linker when the source file is 
c++, but it looks like configure, even if supplied --with-cxx=c++, 
doesn't result in LINKCC being defined as c++ -- or there being any 
conditional rules for using a C++ link command (c++ -libstdc++) when 
necessary.

Since XIST uses setup.py, it isn't immediately obvious how to 
special-case the way it's built...

Any thoughts?

TIA,
Doug
