[Numpy-discussion] Remove FCompiler flags?

[Rob Nagler]

I would like to remove "-fno-second-underscore" and "-Wall" from the
fcompiler. I had hacked a build_clib subclass to remove the flags
dynamically, but that is fragile (and is now broken). Is there a right way
to remove flags?

Thanks,
Rob

No good way to do that I'm afraid, every method is pretty fragile. If it's
on my own machine, I would just remove the flags from fcompiler/gnu.py by
hand. If it needs to be dynamically, then I'd probably go for
monkeypatching the GnuFCompiler/Gnu95FCompiler classes from that package
instead of a command subclass.

Yes, that's what I ended up doing. For the curious, here's the code:
