[omniORB] Python on AIX

[Michael J. Donahue]

All -

I'm having trouble with the Python configure script on AIX 4.3.
My output is below.   I'm on a tight schedule to move from
omniORB 2.8.0 to 3.0.0 and don't have alot of time to try and
figure everything out so any help would be greatly appreciated.

At this point I'm temped to change the configure script to hard code
cross-compiler to 'no', but would prefer the "right  way" if anyone
knows how to get past this with modifing the script.

TIA,

- Mike Donahue
