Ok, I've narrowed down the problem to the missing shared mods
struct and _codecs. It seems that the distutils setup.py is
not run before installing and compiling the .py files.

There are two options:
1. tweak the Makefile targets
2. make struct and _codecs built-in modules

I think the second option is more attractive.
