When compiling Modules/_cursesmodule.c as a static module with GCC 2.95.3, an error is encountered on line 2260 in PyCurses_GetWin.  The error occurs because the PyCursesInitialised macro appears prior _Py_IDENTIFIER(read), which is actually a variable declaration.  Switching the order of the statements fixes the issue.

In all other functions within Modules/_cursesmodule.c, PyCursesInitialised always appears after all variable declarations.

This bug was encountered on the platform m68k-atari-mint using Python 3.3.0 and GCC 2.95.3.

Can we have a review of the one line patch please.

Jerrfey, thanks for your patch, but apparently in the - long - meantime, the declaration has already been moved up.

Next time I see a bug I'll be sure to wait rather than actually submit a patch...

I understand your frustration, but please don't do that: you have to
understand that we don't have any automatic reminder of issues, so it
can happen that some go unnoticed, especially if no core developer is
assigned.
Is this happens in the future, simply send an email on the python-dev
mailing list saying that you've got a patch waiting for review, this
shoud do the trick.
