Summary: Python 2.1a and solaris8/x86

Initial Comment:
Python 2.1a does not build on Solaris8/X86 with 
gcc 2.95.2 and gmake. The problem has been observed
both with the version of gcc 2.95.2 precompiled from
Sun and with a version bootstrapped on the host where
Python should be built.

'uname -a' says: 
SunOS clutc 5.8 Generic_108529-01 i86pc i386 i86pc

Compilation has been started with
$ ./configure && gmake

The problem occurs in the link step, output is:

gcc   -o python Modules/python.o \
                libpython2.1.a -lpthread -lsocket -lnsl
