makesetup fails: long Setup.local lines.  I've
included an attachment that describes the problem.

Thanks,

It's not length; it's the '=' symbol.

Modules/makesetup compares the line to '*=*', and if it matches,
assumes it's a definition, like 'DESTLIB=foo'.  That also matches your 
-DBYTE_ORDER=1234, though, so makesetup just copies the line verbatim into the definition section.

I don't see how to fix it, though; shell pattern matching doesn't seem powerful enough to do something like [^ ]*=*.

Please, could you verify if this problem persists in Python 2.3.4
or 2.4?

If yes, in which version? Can you provide a test case?

If the problem is solved, from which version?

Note that if you fail to answer in one month, I'll close this bug
as "Won't fix".

Thank you!
