Do not think this is a personal attack. Not at all. I am deploying 32 and 64 bits buildslaves (in the same machine) and feeling the pain. You are far more experiences than me with buildbots and python. I want to know if I am missing something. > As for configuration, I personally prefer that setting CC indicates > what type of build you want. Set CC to "gcc -m64" to indicate a > 64-build.

The problem is with things like "/usr/local/lib" and hardcoded library paths in Python. For example, checking <http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/all/builders/AMD64%20OpenIndiana%203.x/builds/8/steps/test/logs/stdio>: """ gcc -shared -m64 build/temp.solaris-2.11-i86pc-3.2-pydebug/export/home/buildbot/64bits/3.x.cea-indiana-amd64/build/Modules/readline.o - -L/usr/lib/termcap -L/usr/local/lib -lreadline -lncursesw -o build/lib.solaris-2.11-i86pc-3.2-pydebug/readline.so ld: fatal: file /usr/local/lib/libncursesw.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file processing errors.
