Using Compaq CC 6.4 on a Tru64 5.1 alpha system. Python 2.2.2 was compiled using
the same compiler (it would not compile using gcc 3.1 on the same machine).
Doing python setup.py build produced the following output:

ld -shared -expect_unresolved * build/temp.osf1-V5.1-alpha-2.2/_KDTree.o
build/temp.osf1-V5.1-alpha-2.2/_KDTree.swig.o -lstdc++ -o
build/lib.osf1-V5.1-alpha-2.2/Bio/KDTree/_KDTreecmodule.so
ld:
Can't open: build/temp.osf1-V5.1-alpha-2.2/_KDTree.o (No such file or
directory)
error: command 'ld' failed with exit status 1

I worked around this by manually executing the following two lines:

gcc -DNDEBUG -O -I/usr/local/Python-2.2.2/include/python2.2 -c
Bio/KDTree/_KDTree.C

gcc -DNDEBUG -O -O -I/usr/local/Python-2.2.2/include/python2.2 -c
Bio/KDTree/_KDTree.swig.C

and then copying the resulting .o files into build/temp.<architecture>. You will
notice that the biopython was compiled with Compaq C but these two modules I had
to compile with gcc and hopefully the mix will work ;)
