No, it's the linker. I takes the object files (.o) which are generated by the
compiler (cc, I imagine) and links them together into the shared library (.so).
make is a program that can automate builds given instructions, but Numeric
doesn't use it, nor do most other Python packages.

No, I was wondering if you could build any other third-party extension modules.
Did you install Python from source? When building extension modules, Python uses
whatever linker was used to build itself.
