Hi,

I tried to install Python 2.2 on my unix machine, but it received
above error when I typed make. I'm really appreciated if anyone could
help me out. Thanks in advance.

My machine info is: 

 osname=solaris, osvers=2.6, archname=sun4-solaris

The complier I use is

The following was the error message I got:
