Hi Alexander and Daniel,

Sorry for the delay, but I wanted the both of you (as well as the list) know 
that both of the provided suggestions (i.e., downgrading readline or installing 
the latest readline) fixed the issue with python27 failing to compile during 
the module stage.

Cheers and  thanks again,

Scott
