I've been spending the night trying to get Zope to compile on my system. It is an Intel based Solaris 8 box. I'm (now), using Python 2.1.2. I've poked and prodded at it every which way I can think of, but always end up with the following error:

If anyone can shead some light on this I would be very happy.
