Python bindings

I am building Subversion 1.0.6 on Solaris 2.6 with the python Swig bindings. I have managed to get as far as successfully creating my binaries and shared libraries.

However, when I try to execute a python program that imports svn.fs (such as the svnshell.py or ViewCVS), I get the following error:

$ ./tools/examples/svnshell.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./tools/examples/svnshell.py", line 25, in ?
    from svn import fs, core, repos
  File "/usr/local/lib/svn-python/svn/fs.py", line 27, in ?
    import libsvn.fs
  File "/usr/local/lib/svn-python/libsvn/fs.py", line 5, in ?
    import _fs
ImportError: ld.so.1: python: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/local/lib/libsvn_fs-1.so.0: symbol __eprintf: referenced symbol not found

I think this usenet post explains it, though I certainly don't understand it:

More info about my environment:

$ uname -a
SunOS hostname 5.6 Generic_105181-26 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-4

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.4.1

Can the gurus on this list help me to fix this, or is this something that is not easily fixed and requires a bug report? I can re-configure and re-compile if necessary, or upgrade to 1.1 RC2.

Thanks,
Raman
