- First, support.fixup_build_ext (already used to set proper
library_dirs value under Unix shared builds) gains the ability to
correctly set the debug attribute under Windows debug builds.
- Second, the filename for the extension module gets a _d suffix under
debug builds.
- Third, the test code properly puts our customized build_ext object
into an internal dictionary to make sure that the install command will
later use our object instead of re-creating one. That’s the downside
of using low-level APIs in our test code: we have to manually push
knobs and turn handles that would otherwise be handled behind the
scenes.
Thanks to Nadeem for the testing.
