The basic idea behind a compiler abstraction class is that each
instance can be used for all the compile/link steps in building a
single project. Thus, attributes common to all of those compile and
link steps -- include directories, macros to define, libraries to link
against, etc. -- are attributes of the compiler instance. To allow for
variability in how individual files are treated, most of those
attributes may be varied on a per-compilation or per-link basis.

# 'compiler_type' is a class attribute that identifies this class. It

# from having to import all possible compiler classes just to do an
# 'isinstance'. In concrete CCompiler subclasses, 'compiler_type'
# should really, really be one of the keys of the 'compiler_class'
# dictionary (see below -- used by the 'new_compiler()' factory
# function) -- authors of new compiler interface classes are
# responsible for updating 'compiler_class'!

# should be the domain of concrete compiler abstraction classes
# (UnixCCompiler, MSVCCompiler, etc.) -- or perhaps the base
# class should have methods for the common ones.
# * can't completely override the include or library searchg
# path, ie. no "cc -I -Idir1 -Idir2" or "cc -L -Ldir1 -Ldir2".
# I'm not sure how widely supported this is even by Unix
# compilers, much less on other platforms. And I'm even less
# sure how useful it is; maybe for cross-compiling, but
# support for that is a ways off. (And anyways, cross
# compilers probably have a dedicated binary with the
# right paths compiled in. I hope.)
# * can't do really freaky things with the library list/library
# dirs, e.g. "-Ldir1 -lfoo -Ldir2 -lfoo" to link against
# different versions of libfoo.a in different locations. I
# think this is useless without the ability to null out the
# library search path anyways.
