Compile on SunOS?

[MrJean1]

These command lines used to build 32-bit Python 2.4 and 2.5 on Solaris
10 Opteron using SUN's compilers:

  setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ....
  env CCSHARED="-KPIC" LDSHARED="cc -xtarget=native -G" LDFLAGS="-
xtarget=native" CC="cc" \
   CPP="cc-xtarget=native -E" BASECFLAGS="-xtarget=native" OPT="-xO5"
CFLAGS="-xtarget=native" \
   CXX="CC -xtarget=native" ./configure --enable-shared --without-gcc
--disable-ipv6 --prefix=....
  make

Replace the ....'s accordingly.  Use BASECFLAGS="-xtarget=native -
xlibmieee" for IEEE floating point.

Disclaimer, I have not tried building Python 2.6 nor 2.7.

/Jean
