Thanks.  This suggestions gets the compile to succeed on Tru64 and
does not harm on Linux.  I'll check it in and see what happens on the
snake farm tonight.

There's one more problem with Tru64: 

 cc   -o python  Modules/python.o  libpython2.3.a -lrt  -lpthread   -lm  -threads
ld:
Unresolved:
makedev

It looks like Tru64 doesn't have a makedev().  You added the patch
that included this a while back.  Do you have any idea what we should
do on Tru64?
