It looks like the inclusion of codecs.h was intended to be removed based on discussion on the previous issue?

(Same error with pypy3 7.1.1)

@glyph if you read my comment there are a lot of changes that would need to be made for typed_ast to work on PyPy (the changes in the comment are just the beginning). Deleting the codecs.h include is not really going to get you far. I gave up around the time I made that comment because I didn't feel life vendoring half of the CPython APIs we use. However, perhaps perhaps PyPy can have an internal parser flag that gets enabled from a typed_ast module, since it will be a while before they reach 3.8?

@ethanhs ah, I see. If it’s not worthwhile to have a tracking issue open for pypy compatibility, please feel free to close this; I was just trying to catalogue the failures I encountered trying to get pypy to work for a production codebase.

Thanks, let’s close this then.
