Python-3.1 fails to compile with:
./Modules/python.c: In function 'wchar_t* char2wchar(char*)':
./Modules/python.c:60: error: invalid conversion from 'void*' to 'wchar_t*'

The attached patch fixes this.

On OpenBSD by chance? Looks similar to Issue4146

nope, a gcc-4.4 based Linux distribution.

It looks like the same problem happens with Issue4146, but it touches
other part of that file.

Can somebody explain the error? The conversion looks quite valid to me,
so it seems to be a compiler bug.
