I was trying to build Python 2.6 on FreeBSD 4.11 and found it failed
to build some of the modules.

"""
Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules:
_bsddb             _sqlite3           _tkinter
gdbm               linuxaudiodev      spwd
sunaudiodev
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for
the module's name.


Failed to build these modules:
_multiprocessing   math               mmap
readline
"""

Because I don't have Berkeley DB, SQLite3 tk, GDBM installed on the
system and running FreeBSD,
there is no wonder it failed to build  _bsddb, _sqlite3, _tkinter,
gdbm, linuxaudiodev, spwd and sunaudiodev.

The problem is it failed to build _multiprocessing, math, mmap and readline.

Here are the outputs of each build failure.

Because FreeBSD is not listed on
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0011/, I suppose it's still a
supported platform.
