Here is a first patch that adds the "--with-soabi" option. --with-soabi=yes or --with-soabi sets SOABI to the computed value (cpython-32m when I tried it). This is the default behavior on Linux. --with-soabi=no or --without-soabi sets SOABI to the empty string, and removes the additional searched extensions from imp.get_suffixes(). This is the default behavior on all other platforms. --with-soabi=<tag> sets SOABI to the given string. Then imp.get_suffixes() contains the following extensions: [".tag.so", "module.tag.so", ".so", "module.so"] The patch is not yet complete, it does not modify the suffixes in the dynload_* files for platforms other than Linux. Windows support will come after. It requires more thoughts because there is no Makefile to read at runtime. But it's the first time I change the ./configure script, so please comment on this first patch.
