Summary: 2.3 build fails: Invalid Form

Initial Comment:
Linux 2.4.12, Mandrake, gcc 3.2.1
Python-2.3.tgz downloaded 2003-08-08

I did a "configure" which completed.  The file
config.log ends with "configure: exit 0"

"make" failed during the linking phase:

$ make
c++ -pthread  -Xlinker -export-dynamic -o python \
		Modules/python.o \
		libpython2.3.a -lpthread -ldl  -lutil   -lm  
/usr/bin/ld: Dwarf Error: Invalid or unhandled FORM

use of `tmpnam_r' is dangerous, better use `mkstemp'
