I get a segmentation fault in the compiler when building python 2.7 on an HP-UX machine.

Compiler version:

B9007AA C.11.23.12 HP C/aC++ Developer's Bundle

System info:

HP-UX ah006b02 B.11.23 U 9000/800 2284397887 unlimited-user license

I can finish the build by compiling this file and "Modules/_io/_iomodule.o" without the '-O' flag (the latter took some tweaking)

It is unlikely that this is a Python bug, but I'm filing it here anyway just in case anyone else runs into it.

Closing the report as third-party bug, then. A compiler crash is most definitely not a bug in Python.
