I'm building on SunOS 5.8 with gcc 3.0.4. I needed to recompile 2.2 to add threads for Zope and am not having any of the build 'xxx' extensions succeed. My original compile with gcc 3.0.2 had succeeded. I've tried it with --with-threads and without, same results. I downloaded 2.2.1, same results.

Logged In: YES user_id=201694 The release candidate downloaded from SourceForge compiled w/o problems. The download with the problems came from the www.python.org site.
Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Can you please manually invoke the gcc command lines to build struct? Then please try to import it in the interpreter, and report any error messages you get in doing so.
Logged In: YES user_id=33168 I had the same problem until I added the location of libgcc_s.so.1 (I don't have gcc 3.0.4 installed in /usr/local) to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. In my case, this fixed the problem: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$HOME/local/lib
