Summary: dl module not installed with 2.2.3

Initial Comment:
I'm running Redhat 7.3 on an older PII.  I was
attemping to try out the python bindings for gstreamer
when I discovered my build of python 2.2.3 was lacking
the 'dl' module.  I've installed RPMS built from the
SRPMS available on the python.org site (with the
non-redhat9 spec file).  Looking around I have not
found a reason for this, nor a way to go about fixing
it, so I assume it is a bug.  Whenever I try to run a
gst-python example I get an ImportError stating the the
dl module does not exist, as well as when I try to run
test_dl.py in my /usr/lib/python2.2/test/ directory.

>From the output it seems to never try to compile dlmodule.c.
 I ran 'rpm --rebuild python2-2.2.3-1.src.rpm 2&>1
>python_build.txt' and grepped the resulting text for
dlmodule.c and only found it placing the file in the build
directory.  It found dlfcn.h fine.  If you need me to I can
attach the python_build.txt file here, but I can't find any
visable errors in the building process.  By the way, feel
free to let me know at any point if I'm doing something
retarded.

What is the error when building dlmodule.c?
