[py-dev] error building greenlets

[Uche Ogbuji]

I can't get greenlets to build on Fedora Core 4 Linux + Python 2.4.1 (or
Python 2.3.4.  I keep getting the following error.  I'm using a pull
form Subversion this week.  I've tried all sorts of fussing about with
the full py library (py/env.py and all that) and all sorts of random
tinkering, to no avail.  I don't find anything on the error via Google.
Any ideas?
