[Image-SIG] bunch of pil errors

On a Mandrake 7.1 system, piddle wouldn't work with the PIL package=20
(1.0b) already installed:

File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/PIL/ImageTk.py", line 113, in=20
paste
    self.__photo.tk.call("PyImagingPhoto", self.__photo, block.id)
TclError: invalid command name "PyImagingPhoto"

So maybe upgrading to 1.1 will fix the problem.  But it won't compile:

tar zxvf Imaging-1.1...tgz
cd Imaging-1.1/libImage
./configure
make

<all cool up to this point>

cd ..
make -f Makefile.pre.in boot

And here's what it spits:

rm -f *.o *~
rm -f *.a tags TAGS config.c Makefile.pre python sedscript
rm -f *.so *.sl so_locations
VERSION=3D`python -c "import sys; print sys.version[:3]"`; \
installdir=3D`python -c "import sys; print sys.prefix"`; \
exec_installdir=3D`python -c "import sys; print sys.exec_prefix"`; \
make -f ./Makefile.pre.in VPATH=3D. srcdir=3D. \
	VERSION=3D$VERSION \
	installdir=3D$installdir \
	exec_installdir=3D$exec_installdir \
	Makefile

needed by `sedscript'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/nickb/Imaging-1.1'

Call me a dummy, but I have no clue what this is saying.
