python -c not working
I built Python on various of our systems (1.5b2) (Solaris 2.7 and AIX
4.x), and everything seemed to be ok, until today when I was trying to
install Numerical Python. I tracked down the error to the fact that

python -c

doesn't work

for example

python -c 'print 1'

gets no output, and

python -c 'import path; print sys.path'

get a syntax error at import. Does anybody have a clue as to what can
be wrong?

I built it in without such problems on another set of Solaris 2.6
systems.
