[vtk-developers] Sgi and Python fun

[Andy Cedilnik]

Hm, I don't know why. Maybe the optimization "-O -OPT:Olimit=0" is
stronger than -O2? Maybe not the same version of compiler? The one here
is Mongoose Compilers: Version 7.10 (cc -version).

In any case, changing optimization to "-O1 -OPT:Olimit=0" fixes it.
