PEP 7 has this sentence :
I would propose to change this to :
- Don't use GCC or MSVC extensions
Reason : using MSVC extensions in the C-code makes is harder to reuse the code or do experimental work on the code using different toolchains or make the code portable to other toolchains, which could be a long term disadvantage.
An exemption could be made for the PC/pyconfig.h file as this file is more or less MSVC specific.
