Trying to compile Plone (3.0.2) on a Sun V880 (SunOS genome 5.10
Generic_125100-05 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-880).  Plone is a web
application which runs on the Zope framework. What fails is the python
(2.4.4) which is distributed with Zope.

During the configure step of the build, I receive the following warning:

*****BEGIN Snippet*****
configure: WARNING: sys/wait.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: sys/wait.h:     check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: sys/wait.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: sys/wait.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: sys/wait.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING: sys/wait.h: in the future, the compiler will take
precedence

------------------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to
http://www.python.org/python-bugs ##
configure: WARNING:     ##
------------------------------------------------ ##
*****END Snippet*****



Then this nasty error breaks the entire config:


******BEGIN Snippet
checking size of int... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (int), 77
See `config.log' for more details.
******END Snippet

What compiler did you use? Can you please attach the compressed config.log?

Please provide the logs. I'm going to close the bug in two week unless
you respond.
