Hello,
I have a c++ library that runs great on HPUX (10.20) and IRIX (6.4), in
a native (ie non-Python) environment. I have also been successful at
getting the library to import w/o problems on IRIX, as a SWIGged module
in Python. Now, I am having difficulty getting the library to import on
HP. I found an old reference to C++ modules in HP needing
"Python/importdl.c" to have shl_load changed to cxxshl_load and what
not. I am not sure that is still valid, or if I have some other build
problem, specific to HPUX. I am using Python 1.5.1. and SWIG1.1p5. When
I import the python library I
get the following errors:

adding -v to the python invocation tells me more:

Bus error

By the way, I am using static C++ constructors in a few cases and am not
sure that is part of the problem. I am using:

Python 1.5.1, SWIG 1.1p5, on HP-UX 10.20, compiler levels:
HP aC++ B3910B A.01.18
HP aC++ B3910B A.01.12 Language Support Library

Many Thanks
