./bootstrap-prefix.sh "${EPREFIX}/tmp" python output

The bootstrap process on the Solaris 10 systems I use is broken because of a bad /usr/local/lib/libbz2.a file.

When I did my original install, I had to patch the bootstrap-prefix.sh script to omit those modules from the build.

To be more specific, I appended _ctypes bz2 to PYTHON_DISABLE_MODULES.

It's really hard to work around a badly broken system in a generic way.
