You need to install the dependencies for compiling Python first. Check 
out the python page on perzl for a complete list. You dont need 
everything, but most of them. I'd recommend using the rpm spec-file i 
linked you though. Install the srpm for python on perzl first, then drop 
my spec-file into /opt/freeware/src/packages/SPECS/ and compile it with 
"rpm -bb --target ibm-ppc-aix6.1 foo.spec"
