After trying to build a module today (and failing), I went searching
around for the answer to this problem. It turns out that there are
installation problems with older versions of Xcode. I had installed
Xcode 1.1 from my Panther CDs. Downloading and installing Xcode 1.5
fixed the problem (and I've got Python 2.4 building in another window as
I write this).

Reinstall Xcode and/or make sure you aren't using Fink or something
which may have installed an alternate compiler (make sure "which cc"
and "which gcc" point to /usr/bin).

I'm running Mac OS 10.3.6. I have XCode/Developer Tools installed,
though that didn't seem to make any difference. I even tried moving
my .bashrc and .profile files out of the way to be sure that those
weren't causing any grief.

hopefully that's the case.
I downloaded the Python 2.4 source and tried to run a basic
./configure to see what I get. What I got was this error:
checking for C++ compiler default output file name... configure:
error: C++ compiler cannot create executables
which appears to be caused by
configure:1772: c++ conftest.cc >&5
ld: can't locate file for: -lcrt1.o
While I'm sure I can track that down, I figured that I must be doing
something silly. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?
