Martin,
compilation indeed breaks if sysconf is available but _SC_CLK_TCK is
not. My Unix-foo is not sufficient to confidently say that this is
impossible, so my suggestion is to add defined(_SC_CLK_TCK) to the
condition of this #ifdef branch. For what it's worth, this also appears
to be the way Perl does it (perl.c, lines 384-385):
#if defined(HAS_SYSCONF) && defined(_SC_CLK_TCK) && !defined(__BEOS__)
PL_clocktick = sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK);
In the other case you mention, where neither sysconf nor HZ are
available, the old default of 60 could be used instead. A noisy error
appears safer to me to avoid future similar bugs, but I see that this is
a bad idea for Python 2.5.x.
I'll prepare a modified patch.
