Compiling Python using the Portland Group compiler

Thanks for your suggestions. I already looked for switches that could  
possibly change the interpretation of the C code, but I found nothing  
other than the usual ANSI and C9x compatibility switches, which only  
change the amount of warnings.

However, I will take up your suggestion and see if I can compile a 32- 
bit executable.

Konrad.
