I realize that cross-compilation isn't supported yet, _but_ setuptools
needs to be modified such that standard compilation variables are
supported, e.g. CC, CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, LD, LDFLAGS, LDLIBS.

The -i, -l, and -L flags with setup.py with build_ext provide a basic
level of support, but unfortunately it doesn't match what these
environment variables provide.

Is this about setuptools, or distutils?  setuptools-specific bugs do not
go in this tracker.

I did some quick inspection and it appears to be tied purely into
setuptools, not distutils. distutils does support the environment
variables properly.

So I take this item and submit it to PEAK I suppose? Fun times ><.

Thanks for the help.

You can submit an entry at http://bugs.python.org/setuptools.

Although, what you mean by "distutils does support the environment
variables properly"
