[issue9742] Python 2.7: math module fails to build on Solaris 9

> ./python
Python 2.7 (r27:82500, Nov 22 2010, 10:06:14)
[GCC 3.3.2] on sunos5
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sys
>>> print sys.float_repr_style
short

So it appears, if I follow you, that PY_NO_SHORT_FLOAT_REPR is not defined.

Glancing through the Makefile, pymath.o is included in the PYTHON_OBJS variable, which is in turn included in the LIBRARY_OBJS variable, which is used in all the libpython* targets.

I'm going to try to turn on some debugging on the commands that build those targets, and see if anything jumps out at me. Maybe it'll be obvious that pymath.o is being left out for one reason or another that'll sync up with your "wild guess". :/
