I've had to create a patch for Solaris to python.

http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/7867

The changes consist of applying a small (< 1 KB) patch downloaded from the python web site to configure.in, then remaking the configure script.

Python's configure.in is quite large (107 KB) and the resulting 'configure' script, along with the files in the automte.cache directory (which is not safe to remove) are quite large

sage subshell$ hg status
M SPKG.txt
M spkg-install
? patches/autom4te.cache/output.0
? patches/autom4te.cache/traces.0
? patches/configure
? patches/configure.in
? patches/configure.in.Solaris.patch

If I check all the changed files in, there is about 1 MB. In comparison, the patch to configure.in I downloaded from the Python web site is < 1 KB.

Do the auto generated files need to be checked in?

Dave
