[issue2559] atom sorting error when buiding ctypes

[Skip Montanaro]

New submission from Skip Montanaro <skip at pobox.com>:

I recently started getting the following error when building the
trunk on Mac OS X Leopard:

  ld: atom sorting error for .LFE1 and .ffi_call_SYSV_end in
build/temp.macosx-10.3-i386-2.6/Users/skip/src/python/trunk/Modules/_ctypes/libffi_osx/x86/x86-darwin.o

I tried rm'ing my build directory then rerunning configure.  Same
result.  Here's the make output after simply removing all '*ctypes*'
files from the build directory:

% find build -name '*ctypes*' | xargs rm -r
% make
