This same bug was reported by someone else for the same platform.

We arrived at the work-around of deleting the line

#define WITH_DYLD

from the config.h generated by the configure script.

If you are still experiencing problems building Python, please
try this.

Very strange.  I've never seen this before.  It appears that somehow
USE_DYLD is defined at that point, which can only happen if WITH_DYLD
is defined, which can only happen if you specify --with-next-framework
or --with-dyld on the configure command line, which you didn't.

Perhaps you have a buggy preprocessor that is confused by the tangle
of #ifdefs in importdl.c?

I don't know how to help you; I know Python has been built
successfully on bsdos3 before, so I'm guessing it's something in your
setup, not a Python bug.

If you need more help, please ask a newsgroup -- either
comp.lang.python or a BSD specific one.

Work-around: if you delete
 #define WITH_DYLD
from config.h, the build succeeds.

Comment:
For the record, I cannot reproduce this on the BSDI 3.1 systems we still have lying around. It *might* have been specific to BSDI 3.0, which we no longer have (for various reasons, like y2k bugs ;) and I've heard similar (but not the same) reports about BSD/OS running under a 'virtual' machine. However, I've never seen or heard about those 'virtual' BSD/OSes, other than in that c.l.py posting.
