New submission from Charles Solar <charlesso...@gmail.com>: I am compiling python on AIX 5.3. The normal configure and make works, except it fails to compile the unicodedata module. The assembler reports a bunch of these errors: Error: value of 000000000001268b too large for field of 2 bytes at 000000000000006d
The module is labeled as optional, but if that one fails python will not install. One of the .py files it tries to compile requires unicodedata so the whole thing fails. I tried --enable-unicode=ucs4 and got the same results so then I tried just --disable-unicode all together and configure spits out: checking what type to use for unicode... configure: error: invalid value for --enable-unicode. Use either ucs2 or ucs4 (lowercase). I had to go into the configure script itself remove a default case statement that produced the error to disable it completely.
