Installing Python problems (_socket.so)

[Andrew McGregor]

You're trying to link a mixed shared-static library setup and your linker 
is messing up.  It is possible that the OpenSSL build didn't work right. 
The real problem is a few lines earlier in the output; can you send it from 
the previous ld or gcc command?
