Zope 2.6.0 on sparc32 ?

All,

I'm trying to get Zope 2.6.0 and CMF running on my ss20 running SuSE
7.3, but Zope doesn't like the python version bundled with 7.3.  So I
pulled down python 2.1.3, which is the latest version Zope likes,
compiled it --with-threads as required, and now I get a seg fault while
it's trying to load some math-related shared object during startup.  Has
anyone gotten 2.6.0 to run happily on SuSE/sparc32?  I'm trying to get
plone (plone.org) running on the box and it runs atop Zope and CMF.

I noticed SuSE 8.1 for x86 still comes with zope 2.5.1.  Is that because
of problems in 2.6.0?  Is there going to be a SuSE 8.x release that runs
on sparc32 machines (and perhaps with a 2.4 kernel)?  I've seen a few
people ask that question on the list, but I don't recall seeing a
definitive answer from the SuSE folks.

Any help appreciated,

-charles
