Ah, then I suspect this a Mandriva-specific issue. Trace through the multiarch-dispatch.h file to see what it actually manages to #include. If it's not the pyconfig.h that has the HAVE_MEMMOVE defined, then your setup is broken for compiling extension modules. If you need more help, then ask on comp.lang.python or a Mandriva list because I'm out of ideas.
