[issue29541] Python3 error while building on Alt-F

[Honza Skýpala]

New submission from Honza Skýpala:

While trying to build Python 3.6.0 on emmbedded Linux device — D-Link DNS-320L running Alt-F firmware (Linux 3.18.28 #1 Fri Jun 17 14:44:39 WEST 2016 armv5tel GNU/Linux), it fails with

./python: can't resolve symbol 'crypt'
make: *** [sharedmods] Error 1

I can see the python executable is compiled fine in the source directory, if I try to run it, then it does work, including some quick tests (calculations, os.getcwd, random.randint -- works fine). 

I can also see that compiling the crypt modules did not report any errors and the .o file is present on the disk. I guess it is some kind of linking error?

Attaching the log from the build.
