Subject: Fall back to pure-python mode on any exception during the build.
X-Git-Tag: v4.1.0b1~137
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=58370bd289ee6b4577e622346d0621236701a478;p=thirdparty%2Ftornado.git

Fall back to pure-python mode on any exception during the build.

Stop the futile process of trying to enumerate which kinds of exceptions
distutils may throw (the latest potential addition: ValueError).

Closes #1115.
