error compiling Python 2.3

[val]

Hi the Gurus,
i'm trying to compile Python 2.3 remotely
(telnet access). It is Cobalt. Linux 2. mips. gcc 2.7.2.

This is a piece of output when doing ./configure

....

## ---------------------- ##
## Running config.status. ##
## ---------------------- ##

This file was extended by python config.status 2.3, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.53. Invocation command line was

CONFIG_FILES =
CONFIG_HEADERS =
CONFIG_LINKS =
CONFIG_COMMANDS =
$ ./config.status

on ns2.spiderwebhost.net

config.status:695: creating Makefile.pre
config.status:695: creating Modules/Setup.config
config.status:25: error: cannot find input file: Modules/Setup.config.in
When i'm looking into Modules, there is no Setup.config up there.

Naively doing make I get:
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop

Any advice? Or, maybe a pointer to the binary please?

Thanks,
Val

Cobalt? Cobalt?? Whatever...
Try reporting things from a little earlier; you might know better than
what I (or anybody else) might assume, but we can't be sure.

Specify URL of the .tgz file you downloaded.
Copy-paste the commands you entered (skip obviously dumb output, if for
example you use the v flag when extracting files) and their output.

The "This file was extended by..." does not sound very familiar, but
it's possible I never noticed it in configure's output.
