 +On Windows, you'll have to make the following change:
 +<code>
 +$ diff bcrypt_python.c.org bcrypt_python.c
 +70a71,72
 +>       char *password_copy;
 +>       char *salt_copy;
 +76,77c78,79
 +<       char *password_copy = strdup(password);
 +<       char *salt_copy = strdup(salt);
 +---
 +>       password_copy = strdup(password);
 +>       salt_copy = strdup(salt);
 +</code>
 +
 +Then you can build it with setup, like so:
 +
 +<code>
 +c:\Python27\python.exe setup.py build
 +</code>

 +==== Verification ====
 +
 +Maybe I should try to automate a way to verify the SHA1 Checksums of PGP signatures and upon success, verify the PHP signatures.  Here's an old recipe: [[http://dannyman.toldme.com/2007/03/30/howto-verify-pgp-signature/|HOWTO: Verify a PGP Signature]].
