[python-sybase] Cannot import python module on Solaris

[S. Baillargeon]

I am trying to import the module but I am getting the blk_alloc error.
 I've read the past link from a couple of months ago but I'm stumped
now.

The followin is in my environment
export SYBASE = /apps/sybase
export SYBASE_OCS = OCS-12_5
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/apps/gcc/lib:$SYBASE/$SYBASE_OCS/lib:/usr/lib:/lib:/usr/local/lib

python version 2.3.4
gcc 3.3

running install
running build
running build_py

creating build/lib.solaris-2.8-sun4u-2.3
copying Sybase.py -> build/lib.solaris-2.8-sun4u-2.3
running build_ext
building 'sybasect' extension

copying build/lib.solaris-2.8-sun4u-2.3/sybasect.so ->
/home/sbaillar/opt/python/lib/python2.3/site-packages

Which looks good...except when I try to do an import:

Python 2.3.4 (#1, Aug  2 2004, 11:43:56)
[GCC 2.95.3 20010315 (release)] on sunos5
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
