PYTHONPATH was the problem. I had /usr/lib64/python2.3 included and that's why it was breaking. I took it out and it works fine now. Unfortunately, it still puts the lib files in /usr/lib instead of /usr/lib64. I'm assuming all I need to do is set libdir accordingly and the files will get put in /usr/lib64. How do I then build the library files for 32bits?
