Summary: OpenUNIX 8: No Compile/Run

Initial Comment:
On OpenUNIX 8, nothing seems to compile.  Y''ou seem to use ld instead 
of cc for building the shared objects, which is wrong. Also, there 
seems to be other issues with symbol referencing errors.  I've 
given accounts on my box before, and I'm willing to do that again.  I 
believe there are serious issues with this build.  (2.1.1 of 
Python, BTW).

More information: the getaddrinfo configure test doesn't take into 
account ---disable--ipv6.  This causes the program to fail, which causes us 
to NOT believe we have getaddrinfo (which we DO). 

If I force 
HAVE_GETADDRINFO in pyconfig.h, we compile the socket code just fine.  


we still coredump on a make test (I haven't figured that out yet). 

What can 
I do to help this situation?

Here is a make.out from a  ./configure --with-cxx=CC --with-threads --disable-
ipv6

Ok, 2.2b2 is *MUCH* better on this platform.  the _socket extension 
doesn't compile.  (EAI_MAX is not defined, and some other issues).  I am 
not sure where this is supposed to be defined. 

I am *STILL* willing to 
allow a python developer (or developers) access to my box.

OpenUNIX 8 is the follow- on from SCO UnixWare 7.1.1.  It is from Caldera.  I' 
ll try and figure it out, but... 

I believe loewis has the ID/PW for an 
account on my box (lerami.lerctr.org [207.158.72.11]), and I'll 
gladly make more if you folks want.

Thanks for the offer. I don't have time to sort this out,
but maybe someone else who reads these notes does. (What
*IS* OpenUNIX 8???)

You can also try to resolve this yourself -- the configure
script has a few case statements on the platform where it
sets the various compilers and linkers (and their options)
used for various actions. A patch would be most appreciated.

You might also consider trying Python 2.2b2, which has
somewhat improved the build procedure.
