I think there is something that is not working here at least for the
instructions in build README file about setting up 4 environment variables
required for HP Itanium 64-bit build using HP compilers.
CC=cc
CXX=aCC
BASECFLAGS="+DD64"
LDFLAGS="+DD64 -lxnet"
When above 4 environment variables are set, the configure script will pick them
up and build the Makefile that passes in LDFLAGS into the linker. The linker
doesn't seem to recognize +DD64 on HP-UX.
ld -b +DD64 -lxnet
build/temp.hp-ux-B.11.31-ia64-2.7/home/r32813/Build/2.7.1/Python-2.7.1/Modules/mathmodule.o
build/temp.hp-ux-B.11.31-ia64-2.7/home/r32813/Build/2.7.1/Python-2.7.1/Modules/_math.o
-L/usr/local/lib -lm -o build/lib.hp-ux-B.11.31-ia64-2.7/math.so
ld: Unrecognized argument: +DD64
Fatal error.
I did a workaround by only setting "CC=cc +DD64" and "CXX=aCC" and did not set
the other 2 environment variables, and able to build python 64-bit without the
failed modules that were due to invalid flag passed into the linker. So I am
re-opening the issue here to see if this is something we can amend in the
instruction of README file for HP 64-bit build using HP Compiler.
