Python 2.2.1 vs. gcc 3.1?

[Andrew Koenig]

I just installed gcc 3.1 on my Solaris 8 machine
and am trying to rebuild Python 2.2.1

Installation is running into some trouble:

running build
running build_ext
building 'struct' extension
creating build
creating build/temp.solaris-2.8-sun4u-2.2
gcc -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fPIC -I. -I/tmp/build-gnu913/Python-2.2.1/./Include -I/usr/local/include -IInclude/ -c /tmp/build-gnu913/Python-2.2.1/Modules/structmodule.c -o build/temp.solaris-2.8-sun4u-2.2/structmodule.o
creating build/lib.solaris-2.8-sun4u-2.2
gcc -shared build/temp.solaris-2.8-sun4u-2.2/structmodule.o -L/usr/local/lib -o build/lib.solaris-2.8-sun4u-2.2/struct.so
WARNING: removing "struct" since importing it failed
building 'regex' extension
gcc -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fPIC -I. -I/tmp/build-gnu913/Python-2.2.1/./Include -I/usr/local/include -IInclude/ -c /tmp/build-gnu913/Python-2.2.1/Modules/regexmodule.c -o build/temp.solaris-2.8-sun4u-2.2/regexmodule.o

WARNING: removing "regex" since importing it failed

and so on.

I do not believe that these problems happened with gcc 3.0

Any suggestions as to how to go about troubleshooting it?
