[mod_python] Mod_python & apache on Solaris 8 compile problems

Greetings all,

I've been trying to build mod_python 2.7.5 into apache 1.3.23 on a 
Solaris 8 system for several days now, and whenever I issue "make" to 
apache after a "./configure 
--activate-module=src/modules/python/libpython.a" I keep on getting the 
same compile errors:

Is there anybody who's encountered this before, or can tell me what a 
fix might be? On a slightly related note, I got something similar when I 
tried compiling mod_perl (1.26) as well (without mod_python), but only 
when I issued the command manually from the apache directory--when I 
told the mod_perl configure script to build httpd for me, it went just 
fine. That says to me that it might be something with the way I have my 
system (a 64-bit Netra X1) set up, but I'll be darned if I can find out 
what's misconfigured.

Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.
