OTOH, it's possible that SWIG and Python just happen to use the same

be used instead.

This would be a good solution IMHO. I'm not the only one facing this
problem. The internet is full of people looking for this file...http://www.google.com/search?q=python25_d.lib+error+cannot

_DEBUG is automatically defined by Visual Studio when you build the
Debug version of a project.http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/0b98s6w8.aspx

So I'm proposing: please use _PYTHON_DEBUG for this purpose. Would
this cause any problems?

Go to bugs.python.org and file a bug report with the conflict it is
causing you. (Well, first, make sure no one else has reported it.) I
advise you to stress the downfalls of the current approach in a
professional, respectful manner. You have been coming off as slightly
whiny in this thread, and that'll hurt your chances of getting such a
change approved. In particular, don't ask for anything, or ask why it
was implemented that way; just report the issue and suggest a fix.

I suspect they used _DEBUG deliberately. I disagree with that: a
generic symbol like _DEBUG should be avoided in general, and should
really be avoided when it entails a change in interface.
