Although I use suns C++ compiler for local development, I alway use gcc
for compiling python related stuff. I have a "sandbox" type of
environment that has all the gnu tools (gnu-make,bash etc) on the path
in front of the sun equivalents, in order to get stuff building in
the way the developers would have.

Hmmm. It did so perfectly for me, on sol2.7 with gcc2.95.2.

Which gcc version? Which solaris version? What was you problem?
