importing shared library on SGI

[Fred Clare]

I am running python on an SGI IRIX 6.5 system.  I
have created a shared library (adder.so) that implements 
a C extension and when I do an import in Python I get the error:

   ImportError: 3907647:python: rld: Fatal Error: Cannot 
   Successfully map soname './adder.so' under any of the 
   filenames ./adder.so

When I do exactly the same thing on a Sun, it works fine.

Any ideas?
