    Extend compiler() method with optional depends argument. · 538305ba
    Jeremy Hylton authored
    This change is not backwards compatible.  If a compiler subclass
    exists outside the distutils package, it may get called with the
    unexpected keyword arg.  It's easy to extend that compiler by having
    it ignore the argument, and not much harder to do the right thing.  If
    this ends up being burdensome, we can change it before 2.3 final to
    work harder at compatibility.
    
    Also add _setup_compile() and _get_cc_args() helper functions that
    factor out much of the boilerplate for each concrete compiler class.
