2.6.4 fails to build on HP-UX 11.11 using GCC, when linking modules:

building '_struct' extension
gcc -pthread -shared build/temp.hp-ux-B.11.11-9000-785-2.6/home/river/
Python-2.6.4/Modules/_struct.o -L/opt/rt/lib -L/usr/local/lib -
lpython2.6 -o build/lib.hp-ux-B.11.11-9000-785-2.6/_struct.sl
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: Can't find library: "python2.6"
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

(This happens for all modules.)

The problem is that libpython2.6.sl is in the root directory, but -L. 
is not passed to gcc, so the linker can't find the library.

Is anyone aware of build issues on HP-UX with later versions of Python?

It is most likely a duplicate of bug #4366.
