You need to use GNU make for that to work. The build regenerates the
makefile, but Sun make doesn't recognize the change. There was a message
telling you so.
GNU make will see that the makefile was rebuilt, and re-read it before
proceeding.
I'd like to get /opt/sfw/ added to the standard lib/include path for
Solaris (10 at least) as this is where Sun's open-source packages get
installed. Is this just a matter of raising a ticket?
Not easily - resolving this might take months or years. If you provide
a well-engineered patch, chances that Python changes are much higher.
Also, your original complaint wasn't that readline isn't considered,
but that setup.py didn't find it even though configure did. A patch
fixing that has a higher chance of being accepted than a patch adding
/opt/sfw to the standard search path (which is really a decision
Sun should take, not the Python maintainers - in absence of a Sun
change, it's then the local administrator who decides).

Martin
