Summary: 2.3.4 fails build on solaris 10 - complexobject.c

Initial Comment:
this has been an ongoing issue:

gcc -c -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -
Wstrict-prototypes -I. -I./Include  -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o 
Objects/classobject.o Objects/classobject.c
gcc -c -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -
Wstrict-prototypes -I. -I./Include  -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o 
Objects/cobject.o Objects/cobject.c
gcc -c -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -
Wstrict-prototypes -I. -I./Include  -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o 
Objects/complexobject.o Objects/complexobject.c
Objects/complexobject.c: In function `complex_pow':
Objects/complexobject.c:469: error: invalid operands to 
binary ==
Objects/complexobject.c:469: error: wrong type 
argument to unary minus
Objects/complexobject.c:469: error: invalid operands to 
binary ==
Objects/complexobject.c:469: error: wrong type 
argument to unary minus
make: *** [Objects/complexobject.o] Error 1

..It fails at that point with no workaround.

Given that this has sat here for two months without
activity, I propose closing it in another fortnight. 
Assigning to me on the off-chance this makes me more likely
to remember :-)

See comments about Py_HUGE_VAL in pyport.h.  Possible 
that this platform defines C's HUGE_VAL incorrectly, in which 
case config for this platfrom needs to set Py_HUGE_VAL to a 
correct expansion.

You could also try compiling complexobject.c without 
optimization.  In at least one prior case, the platform 
HUGE_VAL was correct, but expanded to such a hairy 
expression that it confused the platform C compiler when 
optimization was cranked up.

Finally, you didn't say which version of gcc and its libraries 
you're using.  It's possible that another version would work.
