2.3.2 Installation Problems

[PyUser]

Hello,
  Just downloaded the 2.3.2 bzip2 package and trying to install. When I run
'make', I get the following error:
....
....
running build
running build_ext
make: *** [sharedmods] Error 139

$ uname -a
Linux k.b.com 2.4.20-20.8 #1 Mon Aug 18 14:59:07 EDT 2003 i686 i686 i386
GNU/Linux

$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2/specs
Configured with:
../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info

t-linux --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)

I regularly build earlier versions on the same machine without problems,
although I keep it(the system) current with up2date. Ideas, anyone (Also, I
am installing to my home directory with --prefix=/home/me passed to
configure, if that matters)?

TIA,
