+/* A wrapper around PyRun_SimpleFile. FILENAME is the name of
+ the Python script to run.
+
+ One of the parameters of PyRun_SimpleFile is a FILE *.
+ The problem is that type FILE is extremely system and compiler
+ dependent. So, unless the Python library has been compiled using
+ the same build environment as GDB, we run the risk of getting
+ a crash due to inconsistencies between the definition used by GDB,
+ and the definition used by Python. A mismatch can very likely
+ lead to a crash.
+
+ There is also the situation where the Python library and GDB
+ are using two different versions of the C runtime library.
+ This is particularly visible on Windows, where few users would
+ build Python themselves (this is no trivial task on this platform),
+ and thus use binaries built by someone else instead. Python,
+ being built with VC, would use one version of the msvcr DLL
+ (Eg. msvcr100.dll), while MinGW uses msvcrt.dll. A FILE *
+ from one runtime does not necessarily operate correctly in
+ the other runtime.
+
+ To work around this potential issue, we create the FILE object
+ using Python routines, thus making sure that it is compatible
+ with the Python library. */
