Skip,

This looks *somewhat* like the problems reported in bugs
1529269 and 1528620 (although they have a sparc, and you
seem to have x86 solaris).

Hm, in the standalone ctypes setup script, I find this code
snippet:

if get_platform() in ["solaris-2.9-sun4u", "linux-x86_64"]:
    os.environ["CFLAGS"] = "-fPIC"

Can it be that -fPIC must be used, but is not specified?

It is also funny that the solaris buildbot does NOT seem to
have a problem.
