[Q] building a fortran extension module

[SungPil Yoon]

Hi, all

I am trying to build a fortran extension module using f2py.
I have done it successfully on Sun, and the message from 'file' command is

    % file rinexSupmodule.so
    ELF 32-bit MSB dynamic lib SPARC Version 1, dynamically linked, \
    not stripped

Now, I am having trouble to do the same thing on HP. After I build an
extension module and use 'file' command then I got

    % file addmodule.sl
    PA-RISC1.1 shared executable dynamically linked -not stripped

The message says that the file is not a library and if I try to import
in python, I get this error message:

    % python -v
    >>> import add
    shl_load addmodule.sl
    /usr/lib/dld.sl: Bad magic number for shared library: addmodule.sl
    /usr/lib/dld.sl: Exec format error
    addmodule.sl: Exec format error
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
    ImportError: Failed to load addmodule.sl
    >>>

Could anybody figure out what causes this problem? I tried python 2.0.1 
and python 2.2, and had the same problem.

Any help will be appreciated.
