    Make that "cc +z -Aa -D_HPUX_SOURCE" in libImaging to produce PIC 
objects.

    Is there any way that the configure in there could pick up stuff from 
the Python install since it figures most of this platform-specific stuff 
out (except of course the library location stuff).

    Also, the mmap test fails for reasons unknown to me. config.log 
doesn't have any error messages. I tried compiling and running the source 
from config.log (I had to remove confdefs.h since I don't know how to 
recreate it) and it seemed to work fine...

    HPUX 10.20 mmap man page says:

 STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
      mmap(): AES, SVID3

    for whatever that's worth...
