I don't know if it has anything to do with it. But I got that error one time on AIX and it was a library compiled to 32 bit that could not be linked to 64 bit python. Maybe in your case it is the other way around. I haven't tried compiling Py2.6 yet. I compile 64 bit with: OPT=-O2 ./configure --with-gcc="xlc_r -q64" --with-cxx="xlC_r -q64" -- disable-ipv6 AR="ar -X64" -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
