Initial Comment:
i'm so sorry to say this...

P Y T H O N  is F***IN' BUGGY! ... i'll use perl 
forever ...

i never saw a programming language buggier than this.

configure-script is wrong at the line with the ac_ext=C
this tippo... (line-nr.: 800) oh my god... and i 
searched hours and hours...

if you don't change it this will happen:
--------------------------------------------------
bash-2.04# ./configure
creating cache ./config.cache
checking MACHDEP... aix5
checking for --without-gcc...
checking for --with-cxx=<compiler>... no
checking for c++... no
checking for g++... no
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C++ compiler (gcc  ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration 
problem: C++ compiler cannot create executables.
--------------------------------------------------
due to google and dejanews this is also true for 
serveral other platforms.

have you tested it??? i don't guess so...

i used aix 5.1 and python 2.1.1, 2.2b2 (other problems 
as well!!!)

eat your sh** and stop programming! thx!
