python milter module compilation problem

[Harminder S. Virdi]

Hello,

I have the latest version of Python installed on my machine with the
libmilter.a distributed with the sendmail 8.12.4, but when I try to
compile the python milter module, it fails with the following error.

Do you have any idea what is going on? I would appreciate if you
could tell me. I dont know why I am getting this error.
