In compiling Python 2.7.1 on RHEL I run into the following error message when running make.

gcc: unrecognized option '-n32'
gcc -pthread -n32  -Xlinker -export-dynamic -o python \
			Modules/python.o \
			-L. -lpython2.7 -lpthread -ldl  -lutil   -lm  
gcc: unrecognized option '-n32'
running build
running build_ext


Configured with:

./configure --prefix=/cs/local --enable-shared --libdir=/cs/local/lib64 --with-gcc=yes

GCC:

 # gcc --version

I checked the bug tracker, but I only thing I see related deals with IRIX.

Can you check CFLAGS and friends? Also, attach of output of "configure"?

I have included the config.log file and a script of configure and make process. CFAGS and friends are not set.

Here is the config.log file!

> CFAGS and friends are not set.

How about LDFLAGS?

By the way, the build should have succeeded anyway: the "python" executable should be at the root of your build directory.

I found the problem, it is with my system. In the past we used to support SGI hosts and I had the SGI_ABI environmental variable set to -n32.
