Thanks for the help, but above command need to run in different way ./configure CC=clang make

I'm not sure why you think it "needs" to be that way, but it's fine by me as both ways work fine.

this allowed me to build the code but when ran test I got following error message

[363/364/3] testio python.exe(11411) malloc: *** mmap(size=9223372036854775808) failed (error code=12) *** error: can't allocate region *** set a breakpoint in mallocerrorbreak to debug python.exe(11411,0x7fff7a8ba960) malloc: *** mmap(size=9223372036854775808) failed (error code=12) *** error: can't allocate region *** set a breakpoint in mallocerrorbreak to debug python.exe(11411,0x7fff7a8ba960) malloc: *** mmap(size=9223372036854775808) failed (error code=12) *** error: can't allocate region *** set a breakpoint in mallocerrorbreak to debug I am using Mac OS-X 10.7.2 and insatlled Xcode 4.2.1

Please ensure there aren't any gcc-created objects left by running "make distclean" first.
