I see. I bootstrapped from bundled cc, hence all
the problems.

Oops I was wrong about the python -d --
correct option is -v of course...

You're using Oracle 11 vs our v10 (we also have
v8, v9 and v11 in production, but not on this
HP-UX server), but I think the problem with the
libnnz is the same: Oracle doesn't put correct
shared library dependencies into the libnnzXX.so
dynamic section header (it should list
libttshXX.so as NEEDED but apperently doesn't).

Probably their distribution for Solaris is better,
I didn't check (I'll ask our DBAs on Monday).
