While trying to compile Python 2.5 from the nighlty CVS
image, it raises the following errors on HP-UX. (OS
version= HP-UX 11.22 on ia64, compiler= aCC: HP
aC++/ANSI C B3910B A.06.00 [Aug 25 2004])

Compilation flags:
export CC=aCC

We nailed down the problem. 
Apparantly the option "+DD64" is not used by 'make'. 
Nevertheless we added this to CPPFLAGS and CFLAGS.

It's not clear from your message - did you find a fix for
this? It seems like this should be closed as notabug...

This is how we managed to solve the problem here, but it's
not a clean solution:

#install script for HP-UX 11.xx
CPPFLAGS="+DD64 -I/usr/local/bzip2-1.0.3/include"
export CPPFLAGS
CC="/opt/aCC/bin/aCC -Ae +DD64"
export CC
CFLAGS="-Ae +DD64"
export CFLAGS
CXX="/opt/aCC/bin/aCC -Ae"
export CXX
CXXFLAGS="-Ae +DD64"
export CXXFLAGS
LDFLAGS="+DD64 -L/usr/local/bzip2-1.0.3/lib"
export LDFLAGS
cd dist/src
#
# Do not use the --without-gcc flag because the CC env.var.
will be
# reset to 'cc' (which do not want)
# Additionally we're not using --with-cxx because we want
the system to use
# the CC as it is defined above. The reason is that
apparantly CFLAGS is not
# taken into account thus all options should go into the
definition of CC
#
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/python --without-threads
#
# Finally after the configure we need to edit the resulting
Makefile
# by hand because 'ld' will be used to link the extension
modules. However
# 'ld' does not know the '+DD64' flag and we should link
with aCC instead.
# However there is no way to ask 'configure' to link with
aCC instead of ld.

I think there was a fix checked in recently to address some
(hopefully all) of these issues.  Does the current CVS build
on your HPUX box?

As far as I know, the patches contributed by Elemental
Security make current CVS HEAD work fine on ia64 HP/UX.
Please do test them, though - I think Guido put some notes
in the toplevel README about how to get the build to work.
