I would have thought that building python-2.7.1 would be pretty straightforward - even on an SGI Altix. There were no issues when I ran configure. However, running make results in the following compile error:
Objects/floatobject.c(2603): remark #810: conversion from "int" to "unsigned char" may lose significant bits
sign = (*p >> 7) & 1;
^
(0): internal error: backend signals
compilation aborted for Objects/floatobject.c (code 4)
make: *** [Objects/floatobject.o] Error 4
sign = (*p >> 7) & 1;
^
(0): internal error: backend signals
compilation aborted for Objects/floatobject.c (code 4)
make: *** [Objects/floatobject.o] Error 4
The compiler instructions were:
icc -pthread -c -fno-strict-aliasing -Olimit 1500 -g -O2 -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -I. -IInclude -I./Include -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o Objects/floatobject.o Objects/floatobject.c
Does anyone have any ideas what the problem might be? Thanks in advance.
