This smells horribly like rather risky business. I don't know what you changed or how experienced you are when it comes to editing these auto-generated, system-specific files. Have you tried with Python 2.7, or do you need 2.6? Python 2.7 might work here? Since configure and config.guess are auto-generated, maybe you can regenerate them with a newer/updated version of autoconf that supports your system. Quite frankly, it surprises me that changes to configure would be necessary. Is the system that unusual? What happens if you --disable-shared ? I expect you want the shared library, but - does it work? Just some random thoughts -- I know nothing about AIX and little about cross-UNIX portability beyond, to an extent, GNU vs BSD.
