My 1.5.1 installation on IRIX 6.2 and 6.5 (compiled under 6.2
|
||
|
|
with the 7.1 compiler using -o32) says:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
val> python
|
||
|
|
Python 1.5.1 (#21, Nov 23 1998, 15:04:47) [C] on irix6

>>> import string
|
||
|
|
>>> string.atoi('-')
|
||
|
|
0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
so it isn't a 1.5.1 to 1.5.2 difference or a difference in
|
||
|
|
the -o32 libraries for the OS version. I suspect either the
|
||
|
|
compiler or the -n32 libs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I compiled 1.5.2c1 with the newer compiler using -n32. The
|
||
|
|
result is the error you got:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|

I recompiled 152c1 for SGI_ABI = -o32 on the same machine and
|
||
|
|
compiler.

This suggests that the compiler changed a bit (fixed a bug it
|
||
|
|
seems) and that you are compiling 1.5.2 on the 7.1 compiler while
|
||
|
|
you compiled 1.5.1 on the 7.2 compiler.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Can you try other combinations of machines and compilers? Or
|
||
|
|
perhaps change the ABI to -n32 (or -o32) to get a different
|
||
|
|
set of library routines?
