Autodetect /usr/ccs/bin?

Several machines in the snake farm fail to build libpython2.3 because
they don't have ar in their path. ar, ld and the like live in
/usr/ccs/bin, which seems to be some kind of standard (for generous
values of standard) as both SunOS 5.8, AIX 4.3 and HP/UX 11.00 seems
ot have this dir.

Should the configure script try with /usr/ccs/bin/ar and ld if none is
explicitly supplied?
