Hello,
I am compiling Python2.7 on a HP11i PA-RISC machine and received a segmentation fault.
Platform Information
 "uname -a" = HP-UX hpdev2 B.11.11 U 9000/800 2280874925 unlimited-user license
 
Steps
 1) uncompress Python tgz file
 2) run "configure CC=aCC CXX=aCC"
 3) make
Result: Segmentation fault at library generation time.
 $> ranlib libpython2.7.a
 aCC -Ae -Wl,-E -Wl,+s -o python \
 Modules/python.o \
 libpython2.7.a -lnsl -lrt -ldld -lpthread -lm
 sh[3]: 15168 Bus error(coredump)
 *** Error exit code 138

There was an issue9178 (http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-bugs-list/2010-July/104448.html) with a similar topic but the compiler generated segmentation fault instead. In this case the core file seems
to be from Python itself. I have attached Makefile for your reference.
 
Thank you for your help!
