New submission from Anurag Chourasia <anurag.chourasia at gmail.com>:

Python extensions build on AIX 5.3 with GCC 4.2 fails.

The configure command was as follows

./configure --enable-shared --disable-ipv6 --with-gcc=gcc CPPFLAGS="-I /opt/freeware/include -I /opt/freeware/include/readline -I /opt/freeware/include/ncurses" LDFLAGS="-L. -L/usr/local/lib"

The error during the make step was as follows

ldd: /lib/libreadline.a: File is an archive.

The file build/lib.aix-5.3-2.7/_struct.so is present after this error. 

The error seems to be in importing the module that was just built. Here is the error message from the python executable that was built.

root [zibal]% pwd

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import struct
Fatal Python error: Interpreter not initialized (version mismatch?)
IOT/Abort trap(coredump)

This is also an error in Version 2.6.6

I don't have any other conflicting python library that might cause this.
